Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks 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 she had to go

I don't know, she 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'd she have to go?

I don't know, she 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
