Emerson Drive
Still Got Yesterday
[Verse 1:]
She was the love of my life
Back in '95
We hardly spent a day or night apart
We were victims of a lonely heart
And I remember that day
It all went away
Yeah, when I think about it even now
I find a reason to smile somehow
[Chorus]
'Cause I've still got yesterday
Runnin' wild
Yesterday, when I close my eyes
I drift away
Back where I come from
And today might not be fair
And tomorrow may not be there
But I've still got yesterday
[Verse 2:]
Zach was the one to hang around
We all used to drive through town
With the girls in his daddy's car
Said he was gonna be a big league star
But it was rainy one night
And he didn't see the red light
Now there's a stone where he used to be
And everybody cries but me
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
I've heard people say
You learn the future by the past
If it's any indication
Then I'm looking back
[Chorus:]
'Cause I've still got yesterday
Runnin' wild
Yesterday, when I close my eyes
I drift away
Back where I come from
[Outro:]
Yesterday, when we had our dreams
Yesterday, loud and free
I steal away and I find that summer sun
Today may not be fair
And tomorrow may not be there
But I've still got yesterday
Runnin' wild
