Lyrics Yesterday, When I Was Young

Seems the love I've known has always been the most destructive kind

Guess that's why now

I feel so old before my time

Yesterday when I was young the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue

I teased at life as if it were a foolish game the way the 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 ran away

Yesterday when I was young so many happy songs were waiting 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

I can now recall concerned itself with me and nothing else at all

Yesterday the moon was blue and every crazy day brought something new to do

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 too quickly, quickly died

The friends I made all seemed somehow had drift away

And only I am left on stage to end the play

There are so many songs in me that won't be sung

I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue

The time has come for me to pay for yesterday when I was young
