The Other Way Lyrics
I want to help you
but I don't know how
I want to soothe you
but I can't speak out
I have many fears about rejection
I have many memories of pain
I have always been a little shy
so I'll turn and look the other way
other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
I want to hold you
but I am afraid
I want to touch you
but I'm not that way
I have many doubts about my motives
I have many fears about my greed
I have always hurt the one that I love
so I'll turn and look the other way
other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
[guitar solo]
I have many doubts about my motives
I have many fears about my greed
I have always hurt the one that I love
so I'll turn and look the other way
other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
the other way
the other way
the other way
the other way
but I don't know how
I want to soothe you
but I can't speak out
I have many memories of pain
I have always been a little shy
so I'll turn and look the other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
but I am afraid
I want to touch you
but I'm not that way
I have many fears about my greed
I have always hurt the one that I love
so I'll turn and look the other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
I have many fears about my greed
I have always hurt the one that I love
so I'll turn and look the other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
other way
I will turn and look the other way
the other way
the other way
the other way

River's is celebate. He doesn't want to have sex with you, so he's just gonna turn and look the other way. Serves you right.
Rivers has somehow become less and less mature with his lyrics.
This is one the few songs I like on this album. The lyrics are not very deep at all but he makes it really catchy.
Obviously it's how about he a little bit nevous with things (he's a geek), probably with a girl.
i read its about jen chiba who rivers wanted to comfort after elliott smith (he bf) died, but didnt cuz he did'nt want old feelings to arise and he's regretting not calling her and comforting her
note: if u dont know who elliott smith is go check out his music
.....This song sounds like that one Rooney song....You know that ONE song....
What song?

This is the best song off of Make Believe, and believe me finding a good song off that cd is like looking for a needle in a haystack. i mean, wtf is beverly hills, that is not weezer. im convinced aliens abducted rivers and replaced him with dome pop obsessed hippie who writes the shit on make believe
I Found this song through a friend who had the lyrics as a display name...song fits me perfectly....i like this girl...but im scared to say nething because of how ive hurt her in the past. somehow...i have a feeling that shes going to read this sometime....cause its her i found the song through...so yea...i think you know who you are....and ill say this here...incase i never get the guts to tell you....i do like you...ive never been more certain of it in my life...
