Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away Now it seems as though they're here to stay Oh I believe in yesterday Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be There's a shadow hanging over me Oh yesterday came suddenly Why he had to go I don't know he wouldn't say I said something wrong now I long for yesterday Yesterday love was such an easy game to play Now I need a place to hide away Oh I believe in yesterday Why he had to go I don't know he would not say I said something wrong now I long for yesterday Yesterday love was such an easy game to play Now I need a place to hide away Oh I believe in yesterday Oh I believe in yesterday was so far away oh yesterday was far away
