I Long For Yesterday

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away, Now it looks as though they're here to stay. I can't find light to brighten up my days, I guess I'll just fall astray. Suddenly I'm not all the man I used to be, There's an evil shadow inside of me. I can't seem to set all the problems free, I guess my only option is turn back and flee. Although I sit here and have this guilt, I'm burning down the good I ever built. The good times were an easy game to play, I'm searching for a place to hide away. I don't know why I have to run. I still can not say, I've done everything wrong, Now I long for yesterday. Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away, Now it looks as though they're here stay. Suddenly I'm not all the man I used to be, There's an evil shadow inside of me. The good times were an easy game to play, I'm searching for a place to hide away. I don't know why I have to run. I still can not say, I've done everything wrong, Now I long for yesterday.
