Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be
There is a shadow hanging over me
Yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

I believe in yesterday...
