Yesterday when I was young | |
The taste of life was sweet like rain upon my tongue | |
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game | |
The way an evening breeze would tease a candle flame | |
The thousand dreams I dreamed | |
The splendid things I planned | |
I always built to last on weekend shifting sand | |
I lived by night and shinned the naked light of day | |
And only now I see how the years have run away | |
Yesterday when I was young | |
There were so many songs that waited to be sung | |
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me | |
And so musch pain my dazzled eyes refused to see | |
I ran so fast in time and youth at last ran out | |
I never stopped to think what life was all about | |
And every conversation that I can (now) recall | |
Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all | |
Yesterday the moon was blue | |
And every crazy day brought something new to do | |
And I used my magic age as if it were a wand | |
And ever saw all the waste and emptiness beyond | |
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride | |
And every flame I lit so quickly , quickly died | |
The friends I made off seem somehow to drife away | |
And only I'm left on stage to end the play (chorus) | |
There are so many song in me that won't be sung | |
'Cause I feel the vitter taste of tears upon my tongue | |
And the time has come for me | |
To pay for yesterday when I was young |
Yesterday when I was young | |
The taste of life was sweet like rain upon my tongue | |
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game | |
The way an evening breeze would tease a candle flame | |
The thousand dreams I dreamed | |
The splendid things I planned | |
I always built to last on weekend shifting sand | |
I lived by night and shinned the naked light of day | |
And only now I see how the years have run away | |
Yesterday when I was young | |
There were so many songs that waited to be sung | |
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me | |
And so musch pain my dazzled eyes refused to see | |
I ran so fast in time and youth at last ran out | |
I never stopped to think what life was all about | |
And every conversation that I can now recall | |
Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all | |
Yesterday the moon was blue | |
And every crazy day brought something new to do | |
And I used my magic age as if it were a wand | |
And ever saw all the waste and emptiness beyond | |
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride | |
And every flame I lit so quickly , quickly died | |
The friends I made off seem somehow to drife away | |
And only I' m left on stage to end the play chorus | |
There are so many song in me that won' t be sung | |
' Cause I feel the vitter taste of tears upon my tongue | |
And the time has come for me | |
To pay for yesterday when I was young |
