This song isn't about the words. It's about expressing a fleeting and instantaneous feeling of excitement that you get when you, for instance, just get with a new girl. You feel like everything you do will be the funnest activity ever engaged in and you will always have a great time no matter what you're doing, as long as you're with each other. This song is so precious because it's so hard to recreate that feeling and you only get to feel it a precious few times in your life. Yeah, you can hop from woman to woman after the feeling dies down, but it keeps getting harder to feel it at all after you become jaded and know that it will never last. To get the feeling at all you have to find room in your heart to believe that it will last and this relationship is different. Thanks Weezer.

I love this song, one of the best on Blue (I love every single song on that cd though) It's just about getting away for a while and just going where the road takes ya. Great song!

This is my second favorite weezer song, my favorite being Keep fishin'. This song is quite easy to see to the point of. very catchy though. I may be wrong but I think this is about not needing anyone else for a while, and you should have secret time alone with your girl/boyfriend, kindof like a honeymoon.
