Yesterday
I often look into the stars
And think about just where you are
And can you see what I can see
Is there a time you think of me
When I’m alone I talk to you
The unsaid praises you were due
Alone I listen carefully
A word a sign you sent to me
But maybe it’s too far away
The things I lost to yesterday
The images that I hold dear
Make me believe that you are near
Again upon my knees with you
Forgive the sorrows we’ve been through
Or maybe it’s too far away
Those things I pay for yesterday
I ask you to look through my heart
The moments we shared at the start
And if you see that I’m untrue
I do not know what more to do
Still maybe you’re too far away
And maybe there’s no yesterday
But still just once in a while
There’s hope I still make you smile
Till then
And when
I’m with you again
Remember that was yesterday
And yesterday is far away
