The fact that it's Clay Aiken singing it is what makes the song non-bothersome to me. No, I don't have a crush on the guy, but I'm an American Idol fan and I was a fan of his when he was on there. He's completely non-scary and non-threatening to me. And not to make this all about my weirdnesses, but I find a lot of guys threatening. But there's something cute and puppyish about Clay, and he seems harmless enough.

Really I think the song is saying: "If I wasn't so shy and scared, I would be like one of those suave guys who'd sweep you off your feet, who you'd fall for in a second... but I'm not. So dreaming about you is as close as I'm going to get."

I really think there's a difference between fantasizing, and being a stalker or even a potential stalker.

So anyway, the song doesn't bother me and that may be partially due to the fact that that boy in particular is singing it, but who knows.
