Yesterday.
When he was yours and he was mine,
and you just wanted a little time,
of you and ultimately I,
but I
couldn't have cared less.
All my troubles...
That were going on,
and everything was going wrong,
and all you saw was me so strong,
but you were so blind, all along.
...were so far away.
Ah, the distance how it grew,
and oh if only you ever knew.
how I was the thing you'd always shoo,
if I ever decided to run to you.
Now it looks as if...
you'll never change,
my own life had to rearrange,
to come from what was oh so strange,
and start itself again.
...they're here to stay,
but never you,
'cause you Always have too much to do.
"Mum said I had to clean my room"
like THAT would take all day!
Oh I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly,
You're not half the girl you used to be.
Stay with those who cuss you openly,
oh yesterday, came suddenly.
Why'd he have to go but I know,
you just won't say.
hit me again, with what I did wrong,
I hope you long, for yesterday!!
