gothic flavor
how i miss you
if i only
once could
kiss you

i'd be happy
for one moment
of my lifetime
i'd be there

and the water
running over
me is growing
ever colder

make me happy
for one moment
of my lifetime
i'd be there

make me happy
for one moment
of my lifetime
i'd be there

    General Comment:I agree with the fantasizing about the one he admires, but not getting what he wants, because he has...

    and the water
    running over
    me is growing
    ever colder

    Cold feet!

    make me happy
    for one moment
    of my lifetime
    I'd be there

    "If I only once could kiss you" note the could. He'd be happy, for once he'd be there, but he can't.

    General Comment:when I listen to all Weezer on my ipod, I always hit "back" for a replay at least 3 or 4 times when this song comes on. Not even so much for the words, but for the laid-back music.

    Thanks for reading,

    Matt

    General Comment:I'm not sure if I read it somewhere, but knowing that Rivers is a KISS fan, the first stanza about "gothic flavor" and "if I only once could kiss you" could be a reference to the band.

    General Comment:I wudn't say he's missing the one he loves but more fantasising about that whom he admires. Its sounds alot like a teenage infatuation. Maybe the one moment is at like a party and he gets what he wants. the gothic flavour could be that of stale cigarettes and alchohal sticking in the girls mouth. Just a thought really...
