| [90:00.03] | Yesterday When I Was Young |
| [90:00.04] | Yesterday when I was young |
| [90:00.05] | the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue. |
| [90:00.06] | I teased at life as if it were a foolish g ame' |
| [90:00.07] | the way the evening breeze may tease a candle fl ame. |
| [90:00.08] | The thousand dreams I dreamed' the splendid things I planned |
| [90:00.09] | I always built alas on weak and shifting sand. |
| [90:00.10] | I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day |
| [90:00.11] | and only now I see how the years ran away. |
| [90:00.12] | |
| [90:00.13] | Yesterday when I was young |
| [90:00.14] | so many drinking songs were waiting to be sung' |
| [90:00.15] | so many wayward pleasures lay in store for me |
| [90:00.16] | and so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see. |
| [90:00.17] | I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out' |
| [90:00.18] | I never stopped to think what life was all about |
| [90:00.19] | and every conversation I can now recall |
| [90:00.20] | concerned itself with me and nothing else at all. |
| [90:00.21] | |
| [90:00.22] | Yesterday the moon was blue |
| [90:00.23] | and every crazy day brought something new to do. |
| [90:00.24] | I used my magic age as if itwere a wand |
| [90:00.25] | and never saw the waste and emptiness beyond. |
| [90:00.26] | The g ame of love I played with arrogance and pride |
| [90:00.27] | and every flame I lit too quickly quickly died. |
| [90:00.28] | The friedns I made all seemed somehow to drift away |
| [90:00.29] | and only I am left on stage to end the play. |
| [90:00.30] | There are so many songs in me that won't be sung' |
| [90:00.31] | I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue. |
| [90:00.32] | The time has come for me to pay for yesterday when I was young. |
