I stare at the stars, and the sky up above 
And think, "What am I made of?" 
I full of sorrow? 
I hurt and pained? 
Or am I filled...with love? 
I walk by myself on the streets below
 And ask every child I know,
 "Do you think tomorrow will bring sun or rain?
 Which one of these will show?" 
I can't say good-bye to yesterday, my friend, 
I keep holding on 'til the end
 Out of the darkness there is no other way
 Than the light leading to yesterday
 It's there that 
I'll find In a peace not warm 
And dreams that I let slip away 
I'll find the joyfulness
 I'm looking for Way back in yesterday
 Why can't each of us in the world ever see,
 "The best things in life are free" 
Little sounds of laughter or one hug, a smile
 kiss from you to me I fall to my knees
 I cry and I cry Love, do not pass me by 
Happily ever after, please stay for a while
 Make time refuse to fly 
I can't say good-bye to yesterday, my friend, 
'Cause I know how good it has been
 Face it forever, here 
I [bad word] what may 
In the old in the new yesterday 
It's there that 
I'll find In a peace not warm 
And dreams that 
I let slip away 
I'll find the joyfulness 
I'm looking for 
Way back in yesterday
