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 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 believe in yesterday

Why she had to go I don't know

She 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

I believe in yesterday

Was so far away

Oh' yesterday was far away
