Lyrics:
1 Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.
Now it look as though they're here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
2 Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be.
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
3 Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.
4 Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
5 Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.
6 Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.
