These Days - Paul Carrack

These days won’t come back

We’re just passing through in our lives

On a one way track

We take the path we’ve always shared

And travel with the light of love

Shining everywhere

As we walk beyond these days of youth

We’re all passing by inspired truth

As we say goodbye to the ones we love

Without knowing that we’re all passing through

That’s all we can do these days

We’ll not pretend

The dreams we have still survive

But I have learned

To eat them up like apple pie

We all need some, up in the sky

As we feel the summer start to fade

We reminisce and time just slips away

These precious days

These days

These days

I used to think we would live forever

All these precious days I travel

Memories locked in the back

For these days I’d give my thanks

These days won’t come back

I’m still learning who in my life

I still have to thank

For all this love I feel inside

We only have a given time

To realize

As we walk away from the truth

We’re all passing by

It’s fireproof

These days, yeah

These days

These days

These days
