[Intro]
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 1]
What happened to the world we knew?
When we would dream and scheme
And while the time away
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 2]
Where did it go that yester glow?
When we could feel
The wheel of life turn our way
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 3]
I had a dream, so did you
Life was warm and love was true
Two kids who followed all the rules
Yester fools
And now now it seems those yester dreams
Were just a cruel and foolish game we used to play
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 4]
When I recall what we had
I feel lost I feel sad with nothing but
The memory of yester love and now
Now it seems those yester dreams
Were just a cruel and foolish game we had to play
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
Sing with me
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
One more time
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 1]
What happened to the world we knew?
When we would dream and scheme
And while the time away
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 2]
Where did it go that yester glow?
When we could feel
The wheel of life turn our way
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 3]
I had a dream, so did you
Life was warm and love was true
Two kids who followed all the rules
Yester fools
And now now it seems those yester dreams
Were just a cruel and foolish game we used to play
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
[Verse 4]
When I recall what we had
I feel lost I feel sad with nothing but
The memory of yester love and now
Now it seems those yester dreams
Were just a cruel and foolish game we had to play
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
Sing with me
Yester-me yester-you yesterday
One more time
