Can you still remember
How it seemed that
We could live forever in a lovers dream
And falling was the best part
But now
You know
The things you cling to
Your heart can start to grow
You
You're walking away
I've been there now
I know what to say
I'm the king of yesterday
A silly little love song for myself
It's all I ever do
You know
I shine the shell
A pretty little picture
The face of you
You were my setting sun and now you're every view
You
You're walking away
I've been there now
I know what to say
I'm the king of yesterday
Why don't
Why don't
Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay
Take a little time
Throw it on the line
Let me believe that you believe in me
Baby
Turn around
Look at what I found
You are the one that I want
Take a little time
Throw it on the line
Let me believe that you believe in me
Baby
Turn around
Look at what I found
You were the one that I wanted
And someday
I'll be over on my own
Believing all the legends of the loves I've known
And seeing you in summer
The way we were when you were seventeen
You know
I much preferred you walking away
I've been here
Now I know what to say
I'm the king of yesterday
Why don't
Why don't
Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay with me
Stay
Take a little time
Throw it on the line
Let me believe that you believe in me
Baby
Turn around
Look at what I found
You are the one that I want
Take a little time
Throw it on the line
Let me believe that you believe in me
Baby
Turn around
Look at what I found
You were the one that I wanted
You were the one that I wanted
King of yesterday
King of yesterday
