I like Jack Johnson's cover version of this song much better than the original White Stripes version, just because I don't care for Jack White's voice at all, and I think this song works better as a slower, more peaceful tune.
The lyrics remind me of all the fun and wonder of childhood, and of the easiness of making friends back then. And you really don't notice any time pass, do you? To quote another one of my favorite songs, this one from Sandy Denny: "Who knows where the time goes?"
