Exploring the complexities of modern life, "Oohs and Ahhs" by NEEDTOBREATHE delves into the nostalgia for simpler times while acknowledging the overwhelming demands of today's world. The song reflects on how society often gets dazzled by superficial attractions ('flashing the lights'), which can lead to losing sight of what truly matters. Despite having all the material comforts ('we got everything a man could need'), there remains a persistent struggle ('still got a mountain full of mouths to feed') suggesting that fulfillment extends beyond just material wealth. This track beautifully captures the band's reflection on balancing life's allurements with its responsibilities.
Oohs and Ahhs
Lyrics
Take me back to a simpler time
I never knew the difference
And the words were mine
Another man could take it all in his stride
My tracks have left a stain
We were fresh crawling off the vine
Thrown into a barrel of the cheapest wine
Bottled in a store with a neon sign
And we're all the ones to blame
'Cause in our hearts we know it's true
We got oohs, we got ahhs
We got everything a man could need
We got oohs, we got ahhs
Still got a mountain full of mouths to feed
Tear the ocean and the skies apart
Circle up the wagons underneath the stars
Watch us spin around like a meteorite
It goes down and down and down
'Cause in our hearts we know it's true
We got oohs, we got ahhs
We got everything a man could need
We got oohs, we got ahhs
Still got a mountain full of mouths to feed
We got oohs, we got ahhs
We got everything a man could need
We got oohs, we got ahhs
Still got a mountain full of mouths to feed
Flashing the lights
Drawing us in
Flashing the lights
And then do it again
Flashing the lights
As the sirens call
Drawing us in
So they can watch us fall
Flashing the lights
Flashing the lights
We got oohs, we got ahhs
We got everything a man could need
We got oohs, we got ahhs
Still got a mountain full of mouths to feed
We got oohs, we got ahhs
We got everything a man could need
We got oohs, we got ahhs
Still got a mountain full of mouths to feed
