Lyrics
Ohhh days are rushing by
Expressing a sense of time passing quickly.
In my younger days
Reflecting on the speaker's earlier years.
When I was still in school
Nostalgia for the period when the speaker was in school.
How I wish I'd had a friend, a friend like you
Desire for a friend during the speaker's school days.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Reiteration of the rapid passage of time.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Continued emphasis on the swift progression of days.
I can still remember days could last forever
Fond memories of days feeling endless in the past.
And forever oh my how things have changed
Acknowledgment of significant changes over time.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Repetition of the theme of time rushing by.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Continued emphasis on the fleeting nature of days.
I was always on the outside looking in
Feeling like an outsider in the past.
I was dreaming of better days, but not be king
Dreaming of a better future but not aiming to be a king.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Reiteration of the fast-paced nature of time.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Continued emphasis on the passage of days.
If not for you, this thrive would make no sense
Acknowledgment of the importance of the listener in making life meaningful.
Honestly, I'd never have a chance
Expressing gratitude for the positive impact of the listener.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Repetition of the theme of time passing swiftly.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Continued emphasis on the swift progression of days.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Reiteration of the rapid passage of time.
Oohhh days are rushing by
Final emphasis on the quick passage of days.
