Looking back on life is such a retrospective thing
|
Hoping for some nice advice that only you could bring
|
But you came as in a storm when the woolly dreams were shorn off my back
|
Suffer cold reality's sting
|
|
All my life that I remember was a drag
|
Even though it wasn't so good it was all that I'd had
|
Now I've seen it slip away and tomorrow's just another day
|
To find relief from feeling sad
|
|
Yesterday's not here no more
|
It's gone for good and I'm glad 'cos it made me sore
|
All the things that might have been
|
Are seen by me as regrets that my memory stores
|

|
|
But from all my time the things I have seen
|
Have I seen you or have I been
|
A mirror of what you wanted to be
|
Just almost like you were to me
|
To me, to me, to me
|
|
Yesterday's not here no more
|
It's gone for good and I'm glad 'cos it made me sore

All the things that might have been

Are seen by me as regrets that my memory stores

Yesterday's not here no more
|
Oh yesterday's not here no more
|
Oh yesterday's not here no more
|
Oh yesterday's not here no more
|
Oh yesterday's not here no more
|

Yesterday's Not Here
