Yesterday

Yesterday why did you go away 
Oh yesterday, how I wish that 
You were here today 
My memory of you will never fade away 
Remember when everything was ok 
Nothing went wrong 
Everything was so right 
The sky was blue 
The rain dropped on the water 
The birds sang to the trees 
Man oh, man where could you be 
My yesterday, why did you have to go away? 
Was it me that you didn't stay
