Burt Bacharach
They Don’t Give Medals to Yesterday’s Heroes
[Verse 1]
They don't give medals to yesterday's heroes
'Cause yesterday's over and I've got to live for today
I'm going places and nothing can stand in my way
[Chorus]
Yesterday is over
No, they don't give medals to yesterday's heroes
[Verse 2]
I know my way now, I'll never look back from this day on
I mean to borrow one day from tomorrow
And I'm gonna spend it on sunshine and things that I love
I'm gonna reach out and touch every star above
[Chorus]
Yesterday is over
No they don't give medals to yesterday's heroes
[Outro]
So wrap up that loving cup
I'm a winner from this day on
Yesterday is over
Can't you see it's over?
And I begin living today
Yesterday is over
Yesterday is over
Can't you see it's over?
