I thought I knew you well
But all this time I could never tell
I let you get away

Haunts me every night and every day

You were the only one

The only friend that I counted on
How could I watch you walk away
I'd give anything to have you here today


But now I stand alone with my pride
And dream that you're still by my side


But that was yesterday
I had the world in my hands

But it's not the end of my world
Just a slight change of plans


That was yesterday
But today life goes on
No more hiding in yesterday

'Cause yesterday's gone

Love, my love I gave it all

Thought I saw the light
When I heard you call
Life that we both could share

Has deserted me
Left me in despair


But now I stand alone with my pride
Fighting back the tears I never let myself cry


But that was yesterday
Love was torn from my hands
But it's not the end of my world

Just a little hard to understand

That was yesterday

But today life goes on
You won't find me in yesterday's world
Now yesterday's gone


Goodbye yesterday
Now it's over and done

Still I hope somewhere deep in your heart
Yesterday will live on
