Yesterday's Girl
Do you wonder how I am, think of me?
Did you pray our love will always be?
Do you ever want to see my face?
Take my picture from its hiding place?
Remember how perfectly we fit,
When we retreated from this world?
Just the two of us; what caused the split?
Why am I now your yesterday girl?
We chose other paths, life was not the same;
Yesterday days love was ours to claim.
Yet, once again, I do not hear from you.
I sigh; I ask myself, is this "deja vu"?
Life and love have many surprises in store.
Will this chapter end, sadly, as the one before?
Alone now, I listen to our song the "Duke of Earl".
Am I the "Duchess", or just yesterday's girl?
