I Walk Away From Yesterday

Here I am again Still without a friend I am at all ends I'm lonely Left without a bone Starving and hungry Alto! troubles shown I shall not belong BECAUSE I walk away from yesterday And I'm feeling sorrow I walk away From yesterday I awaiting brighter tomorrows; I walk away from yesterday; And I'm feeling sorrow, sorrow; I walk away from yesterday; As I wait for brighter tomorrows, tomorrows; Here I am again Still without a friend I am at all ends I'm lonely I walk away from yesterday; And I'm feeling sorrow, sorrow; I walk away from yesterday; As I wait for brighter tomorrows, sorrows; 07/15/1974 Written by James Edward Lee Sr. From "The World May End Tomorrow " Demo LP

James, do not be sad; there are many out there who deserve your friendship and company; you just have to be careful who you allow into your life, which incidentally, must be focused on the Christ. i hope you will also find peace and joy in your daily life! cheers!
