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 girl I used to be There' a shadow hanging over me Oh yesterday came suddenly. Phil he had to go and I know he couldn't stay Life had all gone 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 With apologies to Paul McCartney for changing the words a bit.
