[Verse 1]

Yesterday

All my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh, I believe in yesterday

[Verse 2]

Suddenly

I'm not half the man I used to be

There's a shadow hanging over me

Oh, yesterday came suddenly

[Bridge]

Why she had to go

I don't know, she wouldn't say

I said something wrong

Now I long for yesterday

[Verse 3]

Yesterday

Love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday

[Bridge]

Why she had to go

I don't know, she wouldn't say

I said something wrong

Now I long for yesterday

[Verse 3]

Yesterday

Love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday

[Outro]

Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm, hmm-hmm
