yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
now it looks as though they''re here to stay
oh, i believe in yesterday.

suddenly, there''s a shadow hanging over me.
i''m not half the man i used to be,
oh, yesterday came suddenly.

why she had to go i don''t know she wouldn''t say.
i said something wrong, now i long for yesterday.

yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
now i need a place to hide away.
oh, i believe in yesterday.

why she had to go i don''t know she wouldn''t say.
