Paroles

0:17Yesterday when I was young
0:23The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue
0:31I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
0:37The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame
0:44The thousand dreams I dreamed the splendid things I
0:49Planned
0:51I always built alas on weak and shifting sand
0:58I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
1:04And only now I see how the years ran away
1:11Yesterday when I was young
1:18So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung
1:25So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
1:32And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
1:38I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out
1:46I never stopped to think what life was all about
1:53And every conversation I can now recall
1:59Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all
2:33There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
2:41I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
2:47The time has come for me to pay
2:53For yesterday when I was young
Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame
The thousand dreams I dreamed the splendid things I
Planned
I always built alas on weak and shifting sand
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
And only now I see how the years ran away
Yesterday when I was young
So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out
I never stopped to think what life was all about
And every conversation I can now recall
Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
The time has come for me to pay
For yesterday when I was young
