from wikipedia.

Each verse mentions two things that he would do for love, followed by one thing that he will not do. The title phrase repetition reasserts that he "won't do that" previously stated one thing. Each mention of "that" is a reference to the particular promise that he made earlier in the same verse.[7]

Some people misunderstand the lyrics, claiming that the singer never identifies what "that" thing is, which he will not do. The four things he says he will never do are:

forget the way you feel right now
forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight
do it better than I do it with you, so long
stop dreaming of you every night of my life[8]
In addition, at the song's conclusion, the female vocalist predicts two other things that he will do: "You'll see that it's time to move on" and "You'll be screwing around". To both of these, he emphatically responds, "I won't do that!"
