[Verse: Toni Braxton]
Gave you the benefit of the doubt
Till you showed me what you were about
Your true colors came out
Ohhhh
And your words couldn't hide the scent
Cause the truth about where you've been
Is in a fragrance I can't recognize
Standing there
Scratching your head
Blood shot eyes, drunk with regret
Hanging yourself ten feet over the edge
I'm done with this
Feeling like an idiot
Lovin you, I'm over it
I just don't love you, don't love you no more
You, you are so yesterday
Never thought you'd lose my love this way
Now you come begging me to stay
Say, you, you are so yesterday
I won't let you rain on my parade
Don't wanna hear a thing you say
So yesterday
[Verse: Trey Songz]
Baby what you saying to me is
Their no more you and I
I couldn't get right on yesterday
So kiss our tomorrow goodbye
Baby, love should have brought me home
Should just been a man about it
Now I'm crying like a baby
Girl your love is just like my blanket
Don't know what to do without it
I'm standing here
Pleading my case
You don't care to hear what I say
Hanging yourself ten feet over the edge (ooh no baby)
[Trey Songz (Toni Braxton):]
My promises don't mean
A thing
The end is so disgusting
I just don't love you, don't love you no more. (Don't love me no more)
[Toni Braxton:]
You, you are so yesterday
Never thought youd lose my love this way
Now you come begging me to stay
Honey, you, you are so yesterday
I won't let you rain on my parade
Don't wanna hear a thing you say
So yesterday
[Toni Braxton (Trey Songz):]
And now you wanna reminisce (now I wanna reminisce)
Say you wanna try again (said I wanna try again)
Started with a little kiss (a kiss)
(we can't even regret) no no
Now I never wanna see you, never wanna feel you
Ever wanna hear you
I don't love you, don't need you, can't stand you
No More...
You, you are so yesterday
Never thought youd lose my love this way (Toni, please don't leave me)
Now you come begging me to stay
Baby, you (Toni, Toni, Toni, Toni, Toni, Toni don't do it again)
You are so yesterday
I won't let you rain on my parade
Don't wanna hear a thing you say
(Don't you hear me don't erase tomorrow just because of yesterday)
So yesterday (yesterday)
So yesterday (yesterday)
So yesterday (yesterday)
(Paul McCartney/John Lennon)

Run, but don't be scared to look behind.
Stop, don't wait too long, make up your mind.
The end is almost here,
The sky, the air, so nice and clear,
The sound of your decay,
And the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday.
There, now that you know it's not so bad.
See, the good meet soon for ?
So if you try to enhance,
We don't deserve another chance.
Just laugh along the way,
And kiss your ass goodbye with a shadow dream of yesterday.
Yesterday, the good old days.
Yesterday, the way we used to play.
Yesterday, it just got worse and worse.
Yesterday, the future's been rehearsed.
Run, but don't be scared to look behind.
Stop, don't wait too long, make up your mind.
The end is almost here,
The sky, the air, so nice and clear,
The sound of your decay,
And the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday.
Yesterday.
I thought I saw you yesterday
But I didn't stop, 'cause you was walkin' the opposite way
I guess I coulda' shouted out ya name
But even if it was you, I don't know what I would say
We could sit and reminisce about the old school
Maybe share a cigarette, because we both fools
Chop it up and compare perspectives
Life, love, stress and set-backs, yes
So you could tell me how hard you had it
And you could show me all the scars to back it
And we could analyze each complaint
Break it down and explain these mistakes I make
I like to tangle up the strings of the puppetry
But you knew me back when I was a younger me
You seen Sean in all types of light
And I've been meanin' to ask you if I'm doin' alright
Yesterday
Was that you? Looked just like you
Strange thangs my imagination might do
Take a breath, reflect on what we been through
Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
I'm shook, I know, I pushed when I shoulda' pulled
Took it all back if I could, I put that on my soul
And I would make a top-notch good listener
If you could block-off a little time out to give it here
Since we went our separate paths
I've hit a couple snags that remind me of the past
I can't front, I'm havin' a blast
But damned if I ain't afraid of how long it's gonna last
Sittin' here wishin' we could kick it
Give me your opinions, I do miss your criticisms
I didn't mean to be distant, make a visit
I'll wait up and keep the coffee brewin' in the kitchen
But who am I jokin' wit'?
There's no way that you and I will ever get to re-open it
It doesn't matter, this is more than love
And maybe if I'm lucky, get to see you out the corner of
Yesterday
Was that you? Looked just like you
Strange thangs my imagination might do
Take a breath, reflect on what we been through
Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
And when you left, I didn't see it comin'
I guess I slept, it ain't like you was runnin'
You crept out the front door slow
And I was so self-absorbed I didn't even know
And by the time I looked up it was booked up
Put it all behind you, the bad and the good stuff
A whole house full of dreams and steps
I think you'd be impressed with the pieces I kept
You disappeared but the history is still here
It's why I try not to cry over spilt beer
I can't even get mad that you're gone
Leavin' me was probably the best thing you ever taught me
I'm sorry, it's official
I was a fist-full, I didn't keep it simple
Chip on the shoulder, anger in my veins
Had so much hate, now it brings me shame
Never thought about the world wit'out you
And I promise that I'll never say another bad word about you
I thought I saw you yesterday
But I knew it wasn't you, 'cause you passed away, dad
Looked just like you
Strange thangs my imagination might do
Take a breath, reflect on what we been through
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 one 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 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.
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm.
Yesterday.
[Chorus Chris Brown]
Yesterday I fell in love
Today feels like my funeral
I just got hit by a bus
Shouldn’ve been so beautiful
Don’t know why I gave my heart, gave my trust, gave everything
You think that if I had the chance
To do it over again
I’d do something different
Make better decisions
Save me from my ignorance
But I keep
Making the same mistakes before I
I see the danger but I go forward
I’m sitting here trying to keep my composure
Knowing inside I’m broken and tore up
She got me gone I’m on her like a drug
I try to go but end up wanting more
Stuck in my head vivid as a picture
I Wanna be clean but I can’t get rid of her
[Diddy]
Give my all you take it from me (from me girl)
And don’t even replace it for me (noo)
I wish you just fake it for me (fake it)
I wish I can make you love me more
You can’t tell I f-cks wit you I needed you (need you)
I thought that you understood that based on how I treated you (treated you)
I don’t pay attention to the rumors that you feed into
Know you’re missing something I wish I was what completed you
[Chorus]
Yesterday I fell in love
Today feels like my funeral
I just got hit by a bus
Shouldn’ve been so beautiful
Don’t know why I gave my heart, gave my trust, gave everything
You think that if I had the chance
To do it over again
I’d do something different
Make better decisions
Save me from my ignorance
But I keep
Making the same mistakes before I
I see the danger but I go forward
I’m sitting here trying to keep my composure
Knowing inside I’m broken and tore up
She got me gone I’m on her like a drug
I try to go but end up wanting more
Stuck in my head vivid as a picture
I Wanna be clean but I can’t get rid of her
[Verse 2]
I feel like a killer hit me (hit me)
The weapon was concealed initially (ohh)
But I felt so much pain from it (pain)
You deserved to feel it with me more (more)
I feel like I beg wit you I plead wit you (plead wit you)
I don’t comprehend how you can’t love when its so easy to (easy to oh)
I thought you could do it I believed in the naive in you (ohh)
I just need to breathe baby now I got the freedom to (ohh no)
[Chris Brown]
She’s like a drug
And I don’t think I can get rid of her
Cuz she got me in this curse
And it dawned on me I can’t do nothing with her
This woman’s worth
I Can’t find my way out
And it hurts
I tried but she won’t let me go
Oh,Oh,oh,oh,oh she won’t let me go
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh

Yesterday, there was a change somewhere on your face
'Cause yesterday you went looking for
Another warm thing to take his place
Now I'm not trying to tell you that
You have no choices to be weighed
But you've got to believe in faith-healing
'Casue everyone's afraid
Yesterday, you stopped crying
Yesterday your old friend just walked on by
The friend that used to wake you up and
Make you think the world was going to end
Your old friend
I'm sure you know
The old love is ugly now
But no one wants to turn away
From something they think is still allowed
It's clear, that what you're thinking is
How many perfect loves are made
But you've got to believe in faith-healing
Cause everyone's afraid
Yesterday, you stopped, stopped crying
Yesterday your old friend walked on by
Yesterday, you stopped, stopped crying
Yesterday your old friend walked on by

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 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.
I gave you the benefit of the doubt
'Til you showed me what you were about
Your true colors came out
And your words couldn't hide the sin
'Cause the truth about where you been
Is in a fragrance I can't recognize
Just standing there, scratching your head
Bloodshot eyes, drunk with regret
Hanging yourself ten feet over the edge
I'm done with this, feeling like an idiot
Loving you, I'm over it
I just don't love you, don't love you no more
You, you are so yesterday
Never thought you'd lose my love this way
Now you come begging me to stay
See you, you are so yesterday
I won't let you rain on my parade
I don't wanna hear a thing you say
You're so yesterday
Baby, what you're saying to me is
There's no more you and I
I couldn't get it right on yesterday
So kiss our tomorrows goodbye
Baby, love should brought me home
Should've just been a man about it
But now I'm crying like a baby
Girl, your love was like my blanket
Don't know what to do without it
I'm standing here, pleading my case
You don't care to hear what I say
Hanging yourself ten feet over the edge
My promises don't mean nothing
The end is so disgusting
I just don't love you, don't love you no more
You, you are so yesterday
Never thought you'd lose my love this way
Now you come begging me to stay
Honey, you, you are so yesterday
I won't let you rain on my parade
I don't wanna hear a thing you say, so yesterday
And now you wanna reminisce
Say you wanna try again
It started with a little kiss
But we can't even be friends
No, no, now I never wanna see you
Never wanna feel you, never wanna hear you
I don't love you, don't need you
Can't stand you no more
You, you are so yesterday
Never thought you'd lose my love this way
Now you come begging me to stay
You, you are so yesterday
I won't let you rain on my parade
Don't wanna hear a thing you say
So yesterday, so yesterday
Life aint sweet
Damn shol aint peachyjus keep ya head up
(oh babe)
As I dig deep inside my soul
Look into my past
And all that I had through these glass windows
I find myself wanderin all alone
About the ways that yesterday
Changed the path I chose
Aint no tellin where I'd be
Dead or in the penetentiary
From shootouts wit my enemy
Squeeze until my clips empty
But would they give sin to me
By the hands that was lent to me
Know that it was meant to be
To take over this industry
Its goin down
Nomore gettin left behind
Its time to shine
Mind on my grind
Look
And only the Lord knows
If I dont succeed
Then my family's left out in the cold
So I gotta play my cards
Cause if I fold
No supersta
Expensive cars
Or designer clothes
Never feelin bad
Situations gettin sad
Gotta move on
Sun gone shine
Jus wait til mornin
Outta all the struggles
All the pain
All the hurt
Its alright
Gotta be strong
Time moves on
No matter what
When situations get bad
When times get sad
Gotta keep yo mind up
Gotta keep ya grind up
From 99
Never let it behind
Just gotta stay ahead of the race
Keep up my pace
It wont be long
When a feelinz all I can take
I see my heartbreak
Just makes me strong
No matter what nobdy say
I got rhymes to make
Im reachin for the throne
Cause I know that my yesterday
Been the best of dayz
Just take it slow
I know
N though Im young
Money dont grow on trees
Im only 18
But I done seen some shit
You know
Yea I run wild
Live the fast lane lifestyle
I cant help ima ghetto child
Its all good
Now I see
I'm here now
Reach 8 feet
You know
Aint gotta smell that piss in the project halls
I gotta new place to stay now nigga
But uh
Ima still focus
In the hood
Im comin back
Takin all yall niggaz wit me
I remember as a kid wishin' I was seventeen
No more school, my own car
Back then it was all a dream
Then came the day to say goodbye
To the room that was once mine
One last look at my old world then
I closed the door behind, to
Yesterday, everything was easy
Livin' life like there was no tomorrow
Now everyday memories still remind me
How good things used to be yesterday
Well thirty-five soon rolled around
And everything had changed
I could count friends on one hand and
The good times weren't the same
But finally I cam to understand why people say
Don't spend all your childhood wishin'
The best years away
Yesterday, everything was easy
Livin' life like there was no tomorrow
Now everyday memories still remind me
How good things used to be yesterday
Now I'm longin' for the freedom
That I let slip away I took it all for granted
Now it's gone like yesterday
Yesterday, everything was easy
Livin' life like there was no tomorrow
Now everyday memories still remind me
How good things used to be, yesterday
When everything was easy
Livin' life like there was no tomorrow
Now everyday memories still remind me
How good things used to be yesterday
Yesterday
All my troubles seem 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 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
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
you don't know what you've put me through
it's okay, i've forgiven you
but in some way, hope it fucks with you
hope it fucks with you
[pre-chorus]
that i'm okay and i've made it through
but who's to say what your going through
i'll say no names, though i've wanted to
isn't it strange how it seems like...
[chorus]
yesterday, a boy and already afraid
locked deep inside, my place to hide
to hide from how you made me feel
and i wonder how's your brother
did he end up fucked up like me?
lost in himself, crying for help it's safe to say
i learned to live without a pride
just a shell, with me stuck on the inside
a prison, not a place to hide
not a place to hide
[pre-chorus]
[chorus]
[chorus (altered)]
yesterday, a boy and already afraid
locked deep inside, my place to hide
to hide from how you made me feel
and i wonder how's your brother
did he finally pull through like me?
finding himself, not needing help

So ya think some people have it all
On the other side, the grass is always greener
When life gets rough and you're feelin' low
Somehow you find a way to dig yourself down deeper
An' yer girl ran off cuz ya treated 'er bad
But you won't take the blame and ya won't forgive her..
An' money finds a way ta slip right through your hands

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 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.
I just can't believe you're gone
Still waitin' for mornin' to come
When I see if the sun will rise
In the way that you're by my side
When we had so much in store
Tell me what is it I'm reaching for
When we're through building memories
I'll hold yesterday in my heart, in my heart
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made
They can take the music that we'll never play
All the broken dreams, take everything
Just take it away but they can never have yesterday
They can take the future that we'll never know
They can take the places that we said we will go
All the broken dreams take everything
Just take it away but they can never have yesterday
You always choose to stay
I should be thankful for everyday
Heaven knows what the future holds
Or least where the story goes
But I never believed until now
I know I'll see you again, I'm sure
No, it's not selfish to ask for more
One more night, one more day
One more smile on your face
But they can't take yesterday
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made
They can take the music that we'll never play
All the broken dreams, take everything
Just take it away but they can never have yesterday
They can take the future that we'll never know
They can take the places that we said we will go
All the broken dreams take everything
Just take it away but they can never have yesterday
I thought our days would last forever
But it wasn't our destiny
'Cause in my mind we had so much time
But I was so wrong
No, I can, believe me
I can still find the strength in the moments we made
I'm lookin' back on yesterday
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made
They can take the music that we'll never play
All the broken dreams, take everything
Just take it away but they can never have yesterday
They can take the future that we'll never know
They can take the places that we said we will go
All the broken dreams take everything
Just take it away but they can never have yesterday
All the broken dreams take everything
I said sit back relax
It's not the end
We're gonna postpone it
Put it off again
Our separate paths will lead us
Different ways
But the care remains
It will always stay
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday's not all we have
Sorry I could not make this last
One thing I need from you
That's honesty
Please never lie to me
That's what she said to me
One thing for sure is that
I will be true
In everything I do
That's what I learned from you
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday's not all we have
Sorry I could not make this last
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone, it takes so long
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone, it takes so long
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone, it takes so long
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone
Seems like it takes so long
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday Lyrics By Hubbak
Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it seems as though they're here to stay
Oh I regret yesterday
Suddenly
I'm not half the man I used to be
I don't know what came over me
Oh I regret yesterday

CHORUS
I remember a different time
I remember a different me
When there was springtime in my heart
But it's winter
And I'm shivering with cynicism now
And I long for yesterday
Yesterday, a day of joy
A day of limitless possibilities
I remember a different boy
With love surrounding
Joy abounding, peace resounding
Where, oh where did that boy go?
What's wrong with me now, God?
My world is gray, so please help me out
I pray
Cuz I wanna live in yesterday
Take me back to a time of naivete
Neverending days
And no need to question things
Cuz I'm tired of staring out my window
Wishing I were someone I should be
F/ Russell Lee
(Chorus: Russell Lee)
It seems like yesterday, my mama told me
Boy don't you go and throw your life away
[Baby Beesh]
Now it seems like yesterday I was on the block running
Yelling at the top of my lungs, that the ice cream man was coming
And if and never, I only had a buck fifty
I made sure, all the little homies act with me
Shooting Stars, Fudge Bars and them Drumsticks
Having fun with, playas that I run with
Generation as weed and cess
Fast money, fast cars from the valley or the projects
And what's next for a miss got to greet you
But having heart, ain't something they can teach you
Playing ball, hoping one day to see the pros
And little roes saying peace to rest of shows
(Chorus: Russell Lee)
It seems like yesterday, my mama told me
Boy don't you go and throw your life away
It seems like yesterday, me and the homies
We rode our bikes down to the school to play
[Baby Beesh]
Now I done seen a lot of gang fights never end trueted
It wasn't my thang, even though I was heavily recruited
I got blue ones caught up, and it's tragic
Doing ten years trying to stack some of that magic
And man I sure do miss him
And man I got warrants, so I can't even go visit him in prison
And I don't ride enough now I'm tripping
Shed a tear, now it's dripping I ain't bullshitting
One love, one life is your path right
Trying to maintain even on a bad day
Do your thang, stay away from the drama
I hear my mama, looking out for my karma
"Speak up for them
Your friends, your relatives, your neighbors
It's a good idea to speak up for them
And it's always good to thank God"
[Hook: x2]
I miss you like yesterday
I miss you like yesterday
Yeah, I know it sound cliché
And they tell me just to pray, but
I miss you like yesterday
[Verse 1:]
Early morning, whippin' up breakfast
So unexpected, I'm barely yawnin'
Iron my school clothes, food up on the stove
Biscuits was hella fluffy, "Grandma, I need two of
those"
You wisp away from your brother, Papa do what you say
For a crumb could hit my tongue, tell me to pray
Scrape my plate, wash the dish
Be prepared for the world and be thankful of the time
that I get
To be young on the run
Don't be eager to be grown, have some fun
You'll look back when you turn 21
Like my, time flies
Wishin' you were you here by my side
[Hook x2]
[Verse 2:]
Like an autumn breeze, knockin' all the pecans out the
trees
Bakin' your fruitcakes for Christmas Eve
The smell of sweet potato pie make it hard to leave
Sit and reminisce, out the grab bag, everybody got a
gift
Just be thankful for the the thought, don't be givin'
We laugh and cry
You knew you couldn't save the world, but you had to
I been doin' the same
Just so you know, your lectures ain't goin' in vain
Accepted that you're gone but I deal with the pain
Weather the rain, just know I won't be the same
You can't have a better today if you don't remember yesterday
let me tell you the story...
We had no time, we had to leave, we didn't wanna go
we cut our ties, lamenting how the story always goes
we can't return, that was a time so very long ago
but it won't be lost, those we're the best times
that we would ever know
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
everybody's gone away thats why we called it yesterday
Behind these eyes, the movie always running
through my mind, of fatal lives, yet many
more than that came through alright
so you fall in line some day we all must give
up the fight, its not your demise, i know
you won't give up deep down inside
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
everybody's gone away thats why we called it yesterday
so you can't tie me down, to the past, I will reach
for the sky, I will learn how to laugh,at the
things that we never knew, the troubles we had
and i'll die with my innocence and freedom intact
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
Now they've all gone away.. everybody's gone away
that's why we called it yesterday
Yesterdays
Yesterdays
Days I knew as happy sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days
Golden days
Days of mad romance and love
Then gay youth was mine
And truth was mine
Joyous free and flaming life
Forsooth was mine
Sad am I
Glad am I
For today I'm dreaming of
Of yesterdays
Then gay youth was mine
The truth was mine
Sad am I
Glad am I
For today I'm dreaming of
I know you're happy when you smile
I know it's taken me awhile
I know I'm going out of style
10,000 miles from you
But everything is still O.K.
'Cause I'm closer everyday
Which is more than I would have to say
If I was next to you
Think of all the times and places
Step across the open spaces, that lead back to you
And you know that I won't let you go
Sometimes so near and now so far
Retrace the paces that have brought me here
Close my eyes and move along
Thinking, looking, hoping that I'll find a way
You know, that I, can't stop counting all the days
That you're not here to say
You know I miss you more
More than yesterday
I know sometimes that in my past
Lost direction had to ask
I know I wouldn't ever last
Without you
But everything is still O.K.
'Cause I'm closer everyday
Which is more than I would have to say
If I was next to you
What can I do?
Think of all the times and places
Step across the open spaces, that lead back to you
And you know that I won't let you go
Sometimes so near and now so far
Retrace the paces that have brought me here
Close my eyes and move along
I had enough heartache and enough headaches
I've had so many ups and downs
Don't know how much more i can take
See i decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
Either i'm going to trust you or i may as well walk away
'cause stressing don't make it better
Don't make it better, no way
See i decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
Yesterday, i decided to put my trust in you
Yesterday, i realized that you will being me through
There ain't nothing to hard for my god, no
Any problems that i have
He's greater than them all, so
I decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
I know you can see me, god knows you can hear me
I'm standing outside your door, watching you slip away.
Will like when to love is kiss, I felt denial, why do
we do this
there's so much left to say, oh please open up.
We can turn back the time you and me can make this feel
right
we go back to the start before it all starts falling
apart.
Yesterday was the day when everything felt right
you and me we belong to yesterdays life, to yesterdays
life.
And if its so easy for you to leave me,
why did you say goodbye with tears in your eyes.
You said that you staying in, watching your world on
your TV-screen
but there`s nothing on film tonight, you know I'm right
Turn back the time you and me can make this feel right
we go back to the start before it all starts falling
apart.
Yesterday was the day when everything felt right
you and me we belong to yesterdays life, to yesterdays
life.
Everyone crashes in birth, everyone tries to move on
Tell me will we ever return, to when we both felt so
young
Everyone have ever known, just trying to make it on
their own now
I thought that we where do any right, and now I just
want to
Turn back the time so you and me can make this feel
right
we go back to the start before it all starts falling
apart.
Yesterday was the day when everything felt right
you and me we belong to yesterdays life, to yesterdays
life.
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 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.
Ooh yesterday
All my troubles seem so far away
Now it looks as though their here to stay
Ooh, I believe in yesterday

All so suddenly
I'm not half the girl I used to be, oh no no no
There's a shadow hanging over me
Ooh yeah
Yesterday came suddenly, yesterday came suddenly
Why he had to go?
I don?t know
But he wouldn't stay around here long he wouldn't stay
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
I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday
Yesterday's charade
Made us all kneel down and pray
And we thought about
The way we had it made
Yesterday's hoorays
Seem a little bit cold today
When I try to talk
I'm lost for words to say
I try to run
Try to run back now
Try to love
But I don't know how
How to love again
I'm giving up
Giving up my vows
I tried to leave
But I got kicked out
All the doors that lead
Have opened paths to yesterday
Silence writes a page
In a diary I once made
But I don't care
Who can read it anymore
I try to run
Try to run back now
Try to love
But I don't know how
How to love again
I try to dream
But I'm all dreamt out
I try to sleep
But I just can't fake it
All the crazy dreams
Have broken paths to run away
Voices I speak in sleep
Tell the secrets that I keep
In the night you've got your ear
Against my door
I try to run
Try to run back now
Try to love
But I don't know how
How to love again
I try to dream
But I'm all dreamt out
I try to sleep
But I just can't fake it
All the doors that lead
Have opened paths to yesterday
Yesterday's charade
Made us all kneel down and pray
Yesterday love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away oh I believe in yesterday
Suddenly I'm not half the girl 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 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
I believe in yesterday
(Vassal Benford, Debelah Morgan)
Verse 1
Who's gonna love me baby
Who's gonna hold me now
Kiss me tenderly
And rub my body down
Make love by candlelight
Keep me warm at night
I can't believe all you left me in memories
As I lay here baby
Wishing you're here with me
And you were touching me
Making my body scream
How could you leave me baby
With all these memories
Tell me what the hell am I supposed to be feeling now
Bridge
Baby you're so fine
You're always on my mind
I think about you all the time
Don't you know I love you so
I never wanna let you go baby
'cause I still remember yesterday
Chorus
I still remember yesterday
You took your love and went away
And now your love is just a memory
I still remember yesterday
Verse 2
I rehearse in my mind
More than a thousand times
This broken melody
That reminds me
I cannot tell a lie
I kept you satisfied
But no one could ever come close to you with me
Bridge
Baby you're so fine
You're always on my mind
I think about you all the time
Don't you know I love you so
I never wanna let you go baby
'coz I still remember yesterday
Chorus
I still remember yesterday
You took your love and went away
And now your love is just a memory
I still remember yesterday
Oh...
You're so fine
You're always on my mind
I think about you all the time
Oh, yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the girl 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
Oh, I said something?s 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 wouldn't say
Hmm, I said something?s wrong now
I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
You said that yesterday you had thrown it all away
Walking out the door but you never really went away
Yeah
Falling in and out of place in this sore society
Your dreams were all destroyed and you have me to thank
A time to learn
A time to understand
Standing underneath the stars
I slowly tried to hold your hand
Yesterday has come and gone, and now you're only stronger
All the crooked roads and paths that you follow no longer
Falling in and out of place with this sore society
When first we left old England's shores, such yarns as we were told,
As how folks in Australia could pick up lumps of gold.
So when we got to Melbourne Town, we were ready soon to slip,
And get even with the captain, we scuttled from the ship.
Chorus:
With my swag all on my shoulder, black billy in my hand,
I travelled the bush of Australia like a true-born native man.
We steered our course for Portland Town, then north-west of Ballarat,
Where some of us got mighty thin, and some got sleek and fat.
Some tried their luck at Bendigo and some at Fiery Creek;
I made a fortune in a day and spent it in a week.
(Chorus)
So round the tucker tracks I tramp, nor leave them out of sight;
My swag's on my left shoulder and then upon my right,
And then I take it on my back and oft upon it lie;
These are the best of tucker tracks, so I'll stay here till I die.
(Chorus)
I travelled the bush of Australia like a true-born native man.
Dont talk to me
Its time to walk away and make it easy
Cause I cant see clear
And the further away you go,
The more I want you near
I Wish It Was Yesterday
How I wish it was yesterday
I cant erase,
Ive been thinking about you every day
Place faith in me
I just find this all so hard to believe
I wish it was yesterday
Cause youd be in my life again
I just wish it was yesterday,
Putting wrongs to right again
I wish it was yesterday
Today is only just another day without
We watched the sun go down
Stayed out in the rain
Wed talk all night
And dream all day
And why I wish it was yesterday?
Cause youd be in my life again
I just wish it was yesterday,
Putting wrongs to right again
I wish it was yesterday
Today is only just another day without
Thats why I wish it was yesterday,
Cause youd be in my life again
I wish it was yesterday,
So the sun would shine again
I just wish it was yesterday
Today is only just another day without
I was hanging out on the corner of the street
With my hands in my pockets just staring at my feet
Listening to the Beatles from the burnt up radio
I bought it for a dollar from a man in Terrigal
Sifting through my sorrow, I never felt so low
Drowning like a lizard, a human puppet show
Standing at the peak of my bottom-dwelling self
Thinking when’s this gonna stop, and is it time for hell?
And I just can’t figure it out
Did I make a mistake somehow?
Oh, I wish there was a cheap way out
I’m supposed to figure out tomorrow
But all that I can think about is yesterday
I’m supposed to figure out tomorrow
But all that I can think about is yesterday
Feeling like a failure, I wander down the street
Tripping over on my hopelessness and burnt reality
Laying on the side of the road I was afraid
That I may never get up again and never feel the same
She took hold of my hand, she never let it go
She picked up all the pieces, she’s my Marilyn Monroe
Standing at the side where she looked into my eyes
And she told me not to worry and to hold my head up high
And I just can’t figure it out
Did I make a mistake somehow?
Oh, I wish there was a cheap way out
I’m supposed to figure out tomorrow
But all that I can think about is yesterday
I’m supposed to figure out tomorrow
But all that I can think about is yesterday
Tomorrow won’t be easy, and neither will today
I wanted to close my eyes and dream of yesterday
But I won’t do that, no I won’t do that
I can’t do that anymore
I’m supposed to figure out tomorrow
But all that I can think about is yesterday
I’m supposed to figure out tomorrow
Oh...oh...
Oh...oh...
I know I shouldn’t walk out this way
Sorry, but my feelings have changed
I would only hurt you more if I stayed
So I can’t go on pretending that I feel like I did yesterday so
I can’t stay and keep living this lie
I finally found the strength to say goodbye
I’m on my way, nothing can change my mind
I’m leaving behind what we had yesterday
Know this is not about somebody else
It’s not you, I just need some time to myself
Though it hurts me to see you go through this pain
Still I can’t go on believing that I feel like I did yesterday so
I can’t stay and keep living this lie
I finally found the strength to say goodbye
I’m on my way, nothing can change my mind
I’m leaving behind what we had yesterday
Throughout this time I’ve realized
Been holding this in for too long
But I have to stay strong, can’t turn back
I’ve been there for you and now I must do
What I should have yesterday
I can’t stay and keep living this lie
I finally found the strength to say goodbye
I’m on my way, nothing can change my mind
I’m leaving behind what we had yesterday
Yesterday
(Jamey Jaz, Shanice Wilson, Shari Watson)
I know I shouldn't walk out this way
Sorry but my feelings have changed
I would only hurt you more if I stayed
So I can't go on pretending that I
Feel like I did yesterday, so
Hook
I can't stay
And keep living this lie
I finally found the strength to say goodbye
I'm on my way
Nothing can change my mind
I'm leaving behind what we had, yesterday
Know this
It's not about somebody else
Its not you
I just need sometime by myself
Thought it hurts me to see you go through this pain
Still I can't go on believing that I
Feel like I did yesterday,so
Hook
Bridge
Throughout this time
I've realized
Been holding this in for too long
But I have to stay strong, can't turn back
I've been there for you, and now I must do
Miserable and alone
When I'm stumbling 'bout in my home
With no one to care about.
No one to care about.
Feeling the change in my hands
As I bury my head in the sand
Oh where is my way out?
I want a way out.
Help is on the way
Always comes too late
My time is wasting away
I long for yesterday
My harms are too long can't see straight.
Don't know what anymore
I'm afraid
That they'll find out who I am
See me for who I am.
Dinner it flows through a tube
My digestion is not what it's used to
But nobody gives a damn.
Nobody gives a damn.
Help is on the way
Always comes too late
My time is wasting away
I long for yesterday
Help is on the way
Always comes too late
My time is wasting away
I long for yesterday
Yesterday.....
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (8x)
Help is on the way
Always comes too late
My time is wasting away
It's too late to live for today
Do you know what I mean? (3x)
Yesterday, I still believe in love
And everything I was dreaming of
Suddenly, when you told me goodbye
I had a thousand tears to cry that didn't ease the pain
One long night, cold and dark, along them
Broken hearted, your memories standing in the way
It feels like it's killing me but even on my knees
I'm crawling out of yesterday
There's nothing left to say and all
That I can change is hurting over you
One long night, cold and dark, along them
Broken hearted, your memories standing in the way
It feels like it's killing me but even on my knees
I'm crawling out of yesterday
Got to find a way to carry on, even though a love
That's gone keeps hanging on so strong
Yesterday, all that I can change is hurting over you
One long night cold and dark, along them
Broken hearted, your memories standing in the way
It feels like its killing me but even on my knees
I'm crawling out of
One long night, cold and dark, along them
Broken hearted, your memories standing in the way
It feels like it's killing me but even on my knees
Heard you are alone,
Never on your own.
The way you looked at me that night.
Thought that you were gone,
Thought that you were lost.
The way you looked at me that night.
'N' yesterday won't ever change,
'Cause I'll leave it up to you.
'N' yesterday won't ever change,
'Cause I'm coming back to you.
'N' yesterday won't ever change.
Called you on the phone,
Never be alone.
The way you looked at me that night.
Thought that you were gone,
Thought that you were lost.
The way you looked at me that night.
'N' yesterday won't ever change,
'Cause I"ll leave it up to you.
'N' yesterday won't ever change,
'Cause I'm coming back to you.
'N' yesterday won't ever change,
'Cause I'm coming back to you.
I cannot believe we did it
WHen everybody thought we couldn't
Did anything it took admit it
Looking back we won't forget
Everything we've seen
And everything we've been... how did this begin
Someone said to me... how's it going to be... if it ever ends
I don't know... will it end... i don't know when...
We'll never forget what we did yesterday
I don't foresee it
Faced it all did our best we learned from yesterday
A lesson
There's such a long way that we came
Still got a long way we're going
We're never going to be the same
We carry no regret
Did everything we could
With everything we had... since we first began
Someone said to me... how's it going to be... if it ever ends
I don't know... will it end... I don't know when...
We'll never forget what we did yesterday
I don't foresee it
Faced it all did our best we learned from yesterday
A lesson
We'll never forget what we did
No we'll never forget what we did
We'll never forget what we did
Driving in my car, feeling alright
City light so bright, bring back my memories
Pictures of that night, holding you tight
Now you're so far away, light years away from me
Sometimes I feel
I feel you by my side, you are a part of me
Deep inside, oh I can feel
I feel that in the night, you will return to me
I remember how we danced into the light
I remember like it was yesterday
I remember how it felt to hold you tight
I remember like it was yesterday
Like it was yesterday
Sometimes I feel
I feel you by my side, you are a part of me
Deep inside, oh, I can feel
I feel that in the night, you will return to me
I remember how we danced into the light
I remember like it was yesterday
I remember how it felt to hold you tight
I remember like it was yesterday
“Yesterday”
[Chorus 2x]
Yesterday is not today, I’ll let the memories fade away
I gotta keep keep moving on, I had the power all along
I know that I might seem naive
But look deep and you'll see my tree
I've been learning every day
Been working hard with little play
Oh thanks for all the negativity
See thats why I don't watch tv
I thought that you cared about me
But now I see you said you loved me
I disagree
[Chorus 2x]
Yesterday is not today, I’ll let the memories fade away
I gotta keep keep moving on, I had the power all along
[Verse 2]
The stars die before we see
I was that before I was me
I’m pulsing lonely in my field of gray
Digital bearings program my day
Unfold my mirrors and see on through
Discuss it all in terms of you
Bleeding hands reveal my love
I am seeking all the meaning from above
[Chorus 2x]
Yesterday is not today, I’ll let the memories fade away
I gotta keep keep moving on, I had the power all along
[Verse 3]
I think that i can find a light
fuck the weak folks who won't fight
we gotta stand up and take whats ours
show the youth how to reach for the stars
ill take my space ship strait to mars
and you can chill in those corporate bars
but i would love some company
so hows about you joining me
in fact you can steer baby
and bring the others and we will all be free
cause if im secluded
then your alone
im slowely torn from my thrown
wasted visions of purity
salvation isn't found in the majority
collect my values in my purse
i bore my soul with each new verse
[Chorus 2x]
Yesterday is not today, I’ll let the memories fade away
Could you imagine
Lying with me
Etched / edged in skin
I won’t let you go.
Could you sit up there
Hiding with me
Yesterday
I won’t let you go
Yesterday
I don’t have to know (?)
Uuuuh, uuuuh ...
Hmmmm
I’m safe again
When will ... ?
Yesterday
I won’t let you go
Not used to nothing
My soul lives (?)
Yesterday
I won’t let you go
Uuuuh, uuuuh ...
Yesterday
I won’t let you go
Hmmmm ...
Yesterday
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 gal 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 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.
So far away
I get the further you're taking me
Where emptiness stays
My loneliness only takes me back to your face
When I get the feeling
There's something in the way
I'll get the further you take me
But if my heart will ache
I'm holding onto something
When all the parts that you break
Are getting under my skin
Don't you know I can't begin
When I get the feeling
There's something in the way
I'll get the further you take me
But all my yesterdays
Are on my back and again
But don't it take more than what you're giving
I'm afraid I'm still living
On and on I'm here
And when you say you're leaving
Follow tomorrow
I'll bring yesterday
I got to find a way
I hear the voices you know there's things
We forget to say
Like all my mistakes are falling
Back into place
When I get the feeling
There's something in the way
I'll get the further you take me
But all my yesterdays
Are on my back and again
But don't it take more than what you're giving
I'm afraid I'm still living
On and on I'm here
And when you say you're leaving
Follow tomorrow
I'll bring yesterday
But if my heart will ache
I'm holding onto something
When all the parts that you break
Are getting under my skin
Don't you know I can't begin
When I get the feeling
There's something in the way
I'll get the further you take me
But all my yesterdays
Are on my back and again
But don't it take more than what you're giving
I'm afraid I'm still living
On and on I'm here
And when you say you're leaving
Follow tomorrow
Watch my mind grow legs and wander
What did I expect to find out here?
I am only halfway here tonight
Say that You can take this off of my mind
Every time I go back I realize
that yesterday is never as good as it seems
I'm lost in the feelings that I thought were gone
Come in and make all of their light fade out - it fades out
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 girl 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 did 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 saw you yesterday, the words fell out of mouth
Suddenly everything changed, the clouds all opened for us
Its the same as, revelation chapters
Blooming out from pain, everything we need today is
So listen close to me, cause we are all at sea and
Loves a mystery, and love does this to me
All the anger here, all the pain inside
Makes me wanna hide, but I wont wait tonight cause
the way you speak to me, my heart is opened up but
I really know you love, you really know me love
Andafter all the stuckness, you and me just start to trust this (this love..)
Look into the world, it seems the suffering
Is raging on now, We all are wondering if
We can build now, if we can overcome and
Justice be the sun, in the heart of everyone goin..
Really feel it, dont you feel it in the world?
Really feel it, dont we feel it in our hearts?
Really feel it, dont we feel it in the world?
Really feel it in this town
the way you speak to me, my heart is opened up but
I really know you love, you really know me love
Andafter all the stuckness, you and me just start to trust this
Love that is here, this love is our light
This chaos that smashes my inside, this cause for which we must fight
Love that is here, this love is our light
This chaos that smashes my inside, this cause for which we must fight
Aah oohmmmmm
theres nothing more that I would really rather do
then sit and talk right here, now with you yeahmmmm
watch the rainclouds forming on this place
You don't know what I've been going through these past few months
just me and you
sometimes it's hard to believe the lies but I'll try
I'll try
just don't forget me when I'm gone
cuz I'm not coming home
it only seemed like yesterday
we were walking through life with nothing in our way
I guess that people change in time
love does too but I regret
I regret those times with you
Never meant to cause you no pain
When I said I never wanted to see you again, Ohh
Took advantage of all that I gave, babe
So what's the news, tryen to get me to stay
Tried everything to make this thing work
Cause I found that you were god's gift to the earth, no
You could have told me we wouldn't be, yea
Together... forever
Tell me why, now that I'm leaven you're missen me
Tell me why, (oh why) when I loved you, you hated me
Tell me why, (oh why) now that I moved on you're wanting me
But baby its too late now I don't want to go back to yesterday

Everyday I try to do the best that I can ohh
But you never thought that I'd be the one, yeah
(ohh baby, baby)

Tell me why, now that I moved on you're wanting me, yeah, yeah
Baby but its too late now I don't want to go back to yester

My friend, my friend, my friend
Don't get me wrong, I had to write this song
'Cause I don't believe you're feeling me
I want input from you desperately
But it seems you keep turning your head
You say that you love me, you say that you're down
But when times got hard couldn't find you around, now
Why does it have to be this way?
We said friends for life through the good and the bad days
True love ain't supposed to be this way
There's a cloud and it's raining on our yesterday, sing
Raining down, raining down
No I ain't mad, oh no, just a little confused
Is it that morning that keeps you clinging to me
We've had ups, we've had downs so we're even to me me
Said I love you, yeah and the love you've given to me
But it ain't like it was, fuss and fighting so much
When I'm trying to find just a little peace of mind
Why does it have to be this way?
We said friends for life through the good and the bad days
True love ain't supposed to be this way
There's a cloud and it's raining on our yesterday, yeah
Raining down, raining down
Yesterday you could do nothing, no
Yesterday it was just a happy song
Now today it's just a bad melody
And what's worse we're singing in two different keys
Yesterday I knew I could count on you
Yesterday the clouds were gone the skies were blue
Now today is gray with chance of rain
The rain has come and blown away our yesterday
Raining down, raining down
Why does it have to be this way?
We said friends for life through the good and the bad days
True love ain't supposed to be this way
There's a cloud and it's raining on our yesterday
Raining down, raining down
Raining down, raining down
Raining down, raining down
Yesterday
has gone away now
when we used to play
and laugh all day, yeah
Yesterday
has gone away now
when we used play
has gone away now
and we were so young
I never thought we’d be apart, yeah
I can’t forget that day back when
you came to me and said you’re moving
yesterday
has gone away now
when we use to play
has gone away now
Yesterday
has gone away now
when we used to play
and laugh all day, yeah
yesterday
has gone away now
when we use to play
Yesterday, we said our last goodbyes
Darling, yesterday, we gave it one last try
Though we often said that we would never let it come to this
I have nothing left to give
I can only sit and think of yesterday
Baby, that look upon your face
Never a tear that I have shed
We're so far beyond the point of no return
But I can't let this go, my love
So inside I must remember, baby
Yesterday, we said our last goodbye
And yesterday, we gave it one last try
Though we'd often said that we would never let it come to this
I have nothing left to give
I can only sit and think of yesterday
So, how can I mend a broken heart? Tell me, baby
And how do I make a brand new start, baby?
How do I learn to love again
When all I do is think of all we planned
And imagine we could someday make it right?
I dreamed you called my name
And a rose to see that everything had changed
Yesterday, we said goodbye
And yesterday, we gave it one more try
And I know we said we wouldn't let it come to this
But I have nothing left to give
I can only sit and think of yesterday
Yesterday, we said our last goodbye, baby
Yesterday, we gave it one last try, baby
Though we'd often said that we would never let it come to this
I have nothing left to give
I can only sit and think of yesterday
It's good forever, oh baby
'Cuz I'm going to miss you, baby
You promised forever, baby
I wish, baby, that we could see forever, baby
It's breakin' my heart
It's breakin' my heart
It's breakin' my heart, baby
Why does this have to be?
I can only sit and think of yesterday
We said our last goodbye
We gave it one more try
Some time you got to walk on, baby
And try to get another game of lover
Oh, yesterday is gone away
Should we go darling, lover
No more tomorrows
Oday is another day
That I wont see ur face
With no explanation why
U took this luv away
Tomorrow I will miss
What happened to our happiness
Memories of you & me won't let me go
They just won't leave
Though it all seems like a dream
Baby don't u kno that I
I believe in yesterday
Sorry it's just a kiss away
From where we used to be
Baby we can work it out
Talk about, there's no doubt
Cuz in my heart I kno the truth
Nobody can luv me the way u do
Baby boy u got me wishin for yesterday
This phone it can't replace
Touchin me face to face
The way that we were before
Is how it's supposed to be
So tell me what was wrong
Baby give me one more chance
Don't throw it all away
On a stupid circumstance
Cuz u kno I can't erase
All those time xx
In my mind
All the time, sweet baby I
Cuz our love
Is too strong for bringing up little things
I'm ready to risk everything
To have u back
Today, tomorrow & forever
I will give u all of me, baby I

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.

can't get much more than I'm finding,
too many places,
I'm bound too close to the quota
rest stops the time clock it's winding it's way,
sound advice your taking to close to your heart.
fighting..your way.
. Four folds the blue box.
Can't fold out my friends for long but that was charity
set in my ways but that was chastity
good-bye my friends....but that was yesterday.
That was yesterday
too bad about yesterday.

It's nice to see you down low it's good to be part of it.
What a day was yesterday
Oh, yesterday gave me you
All my schemes and golden dreams
At last it seems have come true
Until I found you, the skies were always gray
Then like a sunshine you drove the clouds away
You'll never guess my happiness
When you said yes, yesterday
Days may come and go but one day you'll know
We'll live as the day of days
It was yesterday that I heard you say
I'll love you dear always
What a day was yesterday
Oh, yesterday gave me you
All my schemes and golden dreams
At last it seems have come true
Until I found you, the skies were always gray
Then like a sunshine you drove the clouds away
You'll never guess my happiness

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Yet another night I lie awake,
Praying the sunlight will never come.
Cause I can't seem to face another day,
Trying to rewind, but you moved on.
In every frame I see your face,
What will it take just to let you go?
And when will my heart stop beating your name?
God only knows.
Maybe when the sun don't shine,
When the clouds don't fill with rain,
I can forget about yesterday.
And maybe when the leaves fall down in May,
I'll be okay.
Till then I'm gonna keep on trying,
To rewind and play yesterday.
Till then I'm gonna keep on trying,
To rewind and play yesterday.
I wish I still had you to serenade,
Now you're just a picture in my phone.
But I can't let our love, the memories fade,
The hardest part of love is letting go.
In every frame I see your face,
What will it take just to let you go?
And when will my heart stop beating your name?
God only knows.
Maybe when the sun don't shine,
When the clouds don't fill with rain,
I can forget about yesterday.
And maybe when the leaves fall down in May,
I'll be okay.
Till then I'm gonna keep on trying,
To rewind and play yesterday.
Till then I'm gonna keep on trying,
To rewind and play yesterday.
Girl I can't let you go,
You're my heart and my soul.
Trying to find a way just to let you know,
I am losing control.
This is taking it's toll,
Living without you is impossible.
I can't forget about yesterday.
Maybe when the sun don't shine,
When the clouds don't fill with rain,
I can forget about yesterday.
And maybe when the leaves fall down in May,
I'll be okay.
Till then I'm gonna keep on trying,
To rewind and play yesterday.
Till then I'm gonna keep on trying,
To rewind and play yesterday.
Maybe when the sun don't shine,

(Verse 1)
My darling you don't,
Know a single thing about my past,
Cause if you did you'd hurt and run away without asking.
So what you wanna know you don't wanna know
(Cause it will break your heart).
So do you really wanna go where you know I don't?
(Chorus)
Cause I can't find the means to start thinking bout yesterday.
I don't wanna hear you say nothing bout yesterday.
I don't wanna hear you say cause a new day has come,
Another day that we've won, and I don't care about yesterday,
Yesterday is gone.
(Verse 2)
Girl I don't want to deal, with a past that was left unspoken.
Our love is made of steal with a lock that'll never be broken.
So don't you cry about the answers I aint given.
This is for you and I.
(Chorus)
Cause we don't need to be living for yesterday.
I don't wanna hear you say nothing bout yesterday.
I don't wanna hear you say cause a new day has come,
Another day that we've won, and I don't care about yesterday,
Yesterday is gone.
Yesterday is gone.
Yesterday is gone.
You think that I don't love ya if I don't say every little thing about me,
That I was doing yesterday.
What's done is done.
Why can't you be the one,
To love the man that you helped me become?
(Chorus)
Yesterday
I don't wanna hear you say nothing bout yesterday.
I don't wanna hear you say cause a new day has come,
Another day that we've won, and I don't care about yesterday,
Yesterday is gone.
Yesterday is gone.
Yesterday is gone.
Yesterday, I lost the best friend I ever had
Yesterday, I lost the best friend I ever had
Yeah, she's gone and left me that makes me feel so blue
Well, I am so blue, well, I don't know what to do
Well, I am so blue, well, I don't know what to do
If I find my baby I won't have to worry no more
Yes, I'm all alone, I have no one to call my love
Yes, I'm all alone, no one to call my own
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.

Now I need a place to hide away,
[VERSE:]
I said sit back relax
It's not the end
We're gonna postpone it
Put it off again
Our separate paths will lead us
Different ways
But the care remains
It will always stay
[CHORUS:]
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday's not all we have
Sorry I could not make this last
[VERSE:]
One thing I need from you
That's honesty
Please never lie to me
That's what she said to me
One thing for sure is that
I will be true
In everything I do
That's what I learned from you
[CHORUS:]
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday's not all we have
Sorry I could not make this last
[BRIDGE:]
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone, it takes so long
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone, it takes so long
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone, it takes so long
Being on the road is tough on everyone because
You're here then gone
Seems like it takes so long
[CHORUS:]
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Yesterday's not all that bad
Sorry I could not make this last
Sorry I could not make this last
If I only knew then what I know now
shit would be so wild
mind of a man, soul of a child
no clouds could rain on me
no cuts or scrapes could leave blood stains on me
just imagine
how to side step the critics, understand my own limits
embrace the fire when I'm thrown in it
move with supreme confidence, through every team in the
conference
reconcile dreams of common sense, dominant
no fears or insecurities, appreciate the impurities
build on that, never second guess it, never neglect the
lesson
on every endeavor I bless the session, man
y'all dont know the half of it, trying to make my
renditions accurate
hoping I can capture it for y'all, but now it's like
today is my four walls
yesterday...
yesterday is gone...
{*cuts from Nas "One Mic"*}
no time for lookin back...
no time for lookin back...
no time for lookin back... it's done
yo, put my best foot forward, took two steps, toward
the opposite
back and forth with things, saw a lotta shit
and I was under pressure, now I'm on top of it
so now I'm taking all I can get
my getaway hit the fork in the road and took the scenic
route
'tween me and you, it brought the phoenix out of me
so partner you can hate me or love me, cause I might
have been wrong
but my heart was pure, still, I cant say I dont have
regrets
made mistakes I that wont soon forget, expectations I
haven't met
and yet, I wouldn't trade this moment, pray for
atonement
take me for what I am, a romantic but I'm not hopeless
writing my magnum opus, either you're high pysch, or
lose focus
if you let it, some of y'all will never get it, holding
on to...
yesterday...
yesterday is gone...
{*cuts from Nas "One Mic"*}
no time for lookin back...
no time for lookin back...
no time for lookin back... it's done
I guess that you could say we got a history together
so I can never forget her, not bitter
matter of fact sometimes I still hit it
seduced by the way that she call to come hither
but I found out the first time I did her
I'll never fall in love with her, she gone break your
heart
make a mark, leave, and never come back
and its hard to say goodbye to her, nobody knows her
like I knew her
see she one of a kind, just a free spirit, embodied by
these lyrics
to some, she's not pretty, to me she's beautiful
cause she made me what I am and taught me to be strong
so even when she's gone, her memory lives on
and over time eventually we lost contact, despite that
I gotta admit, I'm still attached, but I can't take her
back
cause who I'm talking about is...
yesterday...
yesterday is gone...
{*cuts from Nas "One Mic"*}
no time for lookin back...
no time for lookin back...
