Yesterday's Smile

Time, passing me by Yesterday's my reason why No longer I try Passing me by like yesterday's smile Done walked that mile Demanding I give her my heart But with hers she'll never part Way it goes Everybody knows Yesterday's smile won't carry me that far that seems about par What can you do Stepping on past that color blue Before you can make me weep My heart I will keep Don't need your I love you No word is true So I keep on a walking Leaving you a talking Life done showed All love is blowed Can't let that seed be sowed When the heart breaks That's all it takes I got taken to school And that's cool Learned I could stand on my own Don't want your love shown Maybe I've grown All I need is me I have come to see Now that makes me free
