Yesterday

Yesterday

I Took the Wrong Direction
And Somehow I've Lost My Way
I Need Someone to Help Me
I'm Feeling Old and Grey

I Started down this Road
That Began in Yesterday
Somehow I Missed a Turn 
And I Found it Was Today

I've Always Lived in Yesterday
And How Things Used to Be
Now I See the Price I've Paid
By Thinking Just of Me

I'd Just as Soon Go Back
I Don't like Today
I Found Things Very Pleasant
When I Lived in Yesterday
