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 i 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
