Just yesterday I cast my eyes
Upon your loving face
But that was yesterday

Now just a dream
A dream that lives inside my memory
Wish it could be reality


Shine on yesterday
Carry me away

And let me back in your arms
Holding you again
Shine on yesterday

Carry me away to be with you
Somehow let my dream come true


You know sometimes I stop and stare
No matter where I am
Thinking of you again

Once in a while I call your name out loud
Hoping you'll hear
Hoping my prayer will bring you here


Shine on yesterday
Carry me away

And let me be back in your arms
Holding you again
Shine on yesterday

Carry me away to be with you
Somehow let my dream come true
