1
Yesterday when I was young
2
The taste of life was sweet
3
As rain upon my tongue
4
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
5
The way the evening breeze
6
May tease the candle flame
7
The thousand dreams I dreamed
8
The splendid things I planned
9
I always built to last on weak and shifting sand
10
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
11
And only now I see how the time ran away
12
Yesterday when I was young
13
So many lovely songs were waiting to be sung
14
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
15
And so much pain my eyes refused to see
16
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out
17
I never stopped to think what life was all about
18
And every conversation that I can now recall
19
Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all
20
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
21
And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died
22
The friends I made all somehow seemed to slip away
23
And only now I'm left alone to end the play, yeah
24
Oh, yesterday when I was young
25
So many, many songs were waiting to be sung
26
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
27
And so much pain my eyes refused to see
28
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
29
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
30
The time has come for me to pay for yesterday
31
When I was young
