Yesterday, When I Was Young
Yesterday when I was young
- Yesterday when I was young
- The taste of life was sweet
- Like rain upon my tongue
- I teased at life as if
- It were a foolish game
- The way an evening breeze
- May tease a candle flame
- The thousand dreams I dreamed
- The splendid things I planned
- I always built to last
- On weak and shifting sand
- I lived by night and shunned
- The naked light of day
- And only now I see
- How the years have ran away
- Yesterday when I was young
- There were so many songs
- That waited to be sung
- So many wild pleasures
- Lay in store for me
- And so much pain
- My dazzled eyes refused to see
- I ran so fast that time
- And youth at last ran out
- I never stopped to think
- What life was all about
- And every conversation
- That I can now recall
- Concerns itself with me
- And nothing else at all
- Yesterday the moon was blue
- And every crazy day
- Brought something new to do
- And I used my magic age
- As if it were a wand
- And never saw the waste
- And emptiness beyond
- The game of love I played
- With arrogance and pride
- And every flame I lit
- So quickly quickly died
- The friends I made all seemed
- Somehow to drift away
- And only I am left
- On stage to end the play
- Yesterday when I was young
- There were so many songs
- That waited to be sung
- So many wild pleasures
- Lay in store for me
- And so much pain
- My dazzled eyes refused to see
- There are so many songs in me
- That won't be sung
- I feel the bitter taste
- Of tears upon my tongue
- And The time has come for me
- To pay for yesterday
- When I was young
Let's hear it!
