Yesterday
As we stumble into Oblivion
Not wanting to be in today
We do all we can
Without being able to bring back Yesterday
As we wish for the past
And try to make the good days last
We cry out for Yesterday
We look at the faces
So real and true
That remind us today is today
And tomorrow is too soon
At times we pray
That today wasn't today
And stare behind ,at our steps
That behind us forever lay
Back in the times, of our Yesterday
We look ahead to the future, straining to see
So sort of sign
That isn't bleakness but glee
That lies ahead, in tomorrows Yesterdays
And seeing nothing
We bring sadness into today
As we slowly drift away
And watch tomorrow become today
We long for the understanding, of Yesterday
