It wasn't reall sad the way they said good-bye
|
Or maybe it just hurt so bad she couldn't cry
|
He packed his things, walked out the door and drove away
|
And she became the girl from yesterday
|
|
He took a plane across the sea
|
To some foreign land
|
She stayed at home and tried to understand
|
How someone who had been so close could be so far away
|
And she became the girl from yesterday
|
|
She doesn't know what's right
|
She doesn't know what's wrong
|
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long
|
And she doesn't count the teardrops
|
That she's cried while he's away
|
Because she knows deep in her heart
|
That he'll be back someday
|
|
The light's on in the window; she's waiting by the phone
|
Talking to a memory that's never coming home
|
She dreams of his returning and the things that he might say
|
But she'll always be the girl from yesterday
|
Yeh, she'll always be the girl from yesterday
|
