You told her lies as her starry eyes looked up in admiration
|
You painted scenes and lovely dreams with all your temptation
|
You spoke of things like wedding rings and promised her the world
|
For no cause at all you let her fall and now she's yesterday's girl
|
|
You think it's smart to lure the heart of a girl whose lips you've kissed
|
Is it just a game to add her name to your brokenhearted list
|
You've loved some long you've loved some wrong you promised each the world
|
Each came to be just a memory and another yesterday's girl
|

|
Don't you sometimes feel that love is real the greatest thing in life
|
Not one romance you gave the chance to be your cherished wife
|
You cheat and lie you make them cry and promise each the world
|
And one by one they each become another yesterday's girl
|
|
When autumn falls and you recall the things that might have been
|
Then you'll pause and see you caused the grief that's deep within
|
When you're old and love grows cold I'll bet you'd give the world
|
To just relive to take and give the love of a yesterday's girl
