YES! That's exactly it. Romantic without being cheesy, nostalgic without being silly. Love it. Some of my favorite lines:

"....yeah it was nearly all summer, we sat on your roof, yeah we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon..."

"...it's so painful, something that's so close, but still so far out of reach..."

"...And then she looks me in the eye, says, we gonna last forever,
And man, you know I cant begin to doubt it
No, because this feels so good and so free and so right,
I know we aint never goin change our minds about it..."

"...I'll be the boy in the corduroy pants
You be the girl at the high school dance
Run with me wherever I go
And just play dumb, whatever you know..."
