I actually think Blake is a very sexual, and romantic person. Remember Ninjas of Love? She is not a serious all the time type. She's a quiet, bookish girl who does have a sense of humor and does like to have fun. Things just get in the way of that a lot, especially recently.

And to me, this song becomes more obviously a duet the more I look at it. The way the second chorus cuts off for the bridge strongly suggests were going from one perspective to another. Different lyrics are written with a completely different tone. The first verse and chorus are all puns and figurative language. The second swaps that out for metaphor and simile. The bridge is split, with a pair of similes, one more poetic and the other more jokey. If it was one person, it would not be such a tonal mess, and that's ignoring that the content of the lyrics on the second verse basically scream this is the Blake part.

Also, that its not romantic and just sexual is complete nonsense. The Yang verse is pretty chaste. After setting the romantic garden scene, she just sits with Blake and watches her smile and that makes her happy. The Blake verse is more overt with the kiss thing, but before it even gets to that its all about what Yang means to her, how much brighter she makes her life--stuff that isn't sexual at all. The only thing sexual on the chorus arguably are "garden of ecstasy" which isn't neccesarily sexual, and "let me be your bumblebee" which could be taken as a sex joke, but can also just be taken as a follow up to "you could be my queen" saying, you be my queen bee, I'll be your devoted bumblebee. In which case its more just sweet than anything.
