Yesterdays Tomorrow

Yesterday’s Tomorrow

yesterday has passed me by
leaving only memories
of all the things that I regret
from doing what I please
today was always about fun
no matter what the cost
and now I bear the sorrows
of all the joys I’ve lost
all the dreams that passed me by
I assumed would be all right
are now the visions haunting me
when I wake in the night
all the things that could of been
tomorrow will not bring
that is all a man will get
if he doesn't do a thing
yesterday is always gone
and tomorrow far away
that is why you've got to make
the most out of today
