Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away 
Now it look as though they're here to stay 
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be 
There's a shadow hanging over me 
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
 [bad word] ]
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say 
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play 
Now I need a place to hide away 
Oh, I believe in yesterday
