Well, I shook the hand of a weeping sparrow
 And heard the most beautiful tune
 Laid myself down upon a field of flowers
 And searched through my dreams to find you
 And lost all of yesterday's blues

 And I walked in circles confused and scattered
 And stumbled around as a fool
 Lost in the maze of veins in my heart
 'Til I woke up unconscious with you
 And let go of yesterday's blues

 'Cause you have a way that lets me breathe
 And you have a way that sets me free
 And you have a heart that can see right through
 The bitterness of my yesterday's blues

 Down in a city of shelters and shambles
 I thought I had nothing to lose
 I took for granted the wise words of strangers
 And gambled until I was through
 And lost all of yesterday's blues

 'Cause you have a way that sets me free
 And you have a way that lets me breathe
 And you have a heart that can see right through
 The bitterness of my yesterday's blues

 Well, I shook the hand of the deepest sorrow
 And waved a goodbye just to lose
 Laid myself down below the endless towers
 And searched through my dreams to find you
 And lost all of yesterday's blues
