lyrics

I met her yesterday but now I see
That she was not the kind to stay with me
It was fun but that’s how they say these things must go
I wondered how it would be just once; now I know

I loved her yesterday but now she’s gone
She’s travelled far away but life goes on
I can go back to work as if nothing has changed
But on the inside everything is rearranged

We had our time apart
And too few hours together
We started in the sunshine
But turned to stormy weather

I lost her yesterday but I’m still glad
I never will forget good times we had
Yesterday’s over but if bad times are to come
I know I will feel good if I think of the one

Who I met yesterday
Who I loved yesterday
Who I lost yesterday
