Yesterday, 
All my troubles seemed so far away, 
Now it looks 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. 

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. 

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.
