[90:00.01] Yesterday when i was young
[90:00.02]
[90:00.03] Yesterday When I Was Young
[90:00.04] Yesterday when I was young
[90:00.05] the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
[90:00.06] I teased at life as if it were a foolish g ame'
[90:00.07] the way the evening breeze may tease a candle fl ame.
[90:00.08] The thousand dreams I dreamed' the splendid things I planned
[90:00.09] I always built alas on weak and shifting sand.
[90:00.10] I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day
[90:00.11] and only now I see how the years ran away.
[90:00.12]
[90:00.13] Yesterday when I was young
[90:00.14] so many drinking songs were waiting to be sung'
[90:00.15] so many wayward pleasures lay in store for me
[90:00.16] and so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see.
[90:00.17] I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out'
[90:00.18] I never stopped to think what life was all about
[90:00.19] and every conversation I can now recall
[90:00.20] concerned itself with me and nothing else at all.
[90:00.21]
[90:00.22] Yesterday the moon was blue
[90:00.23] and every crazy day brought something new to do.
[90:00.24] I used my magic age as if itwere a wand
[90:00.25] and never saw the waste and emptiness beyond.
[90:00.26] The g ame of love I played with arrogance and pride
[90:00.27] and every flame I lit too quickly quickly died.
[90:00.28] The friedns I made all seemed somehow to drift away
[90:00.29] and only I am left on stage to end the play.
[90:00.30] There are so many songs in me that won't be sung'
[90:00.31] I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue.
[90:00.32] The time has come for me to pay for yesterday when I was young.
