Joy Williams
Waiting For Yesterday
[Intro]
Day, day

[Verse 1]
You and me all alone, girl
What's going on? Would you tell me what's wrong?
It's like you're locked up in your own world
Oh, with nothin' to say
You keep me guessing, but I see in your eyes (Your eyes)
He made you promises, but gave you lies (You lies)
You're shutting down because you're so sure (So sure)
That I'll be another mistake

[Chorus]
I know that he left you in pieces
You know that I won't be that way
I'm not gonna treat you like he did
Oh, whatever it takes
You think history is repeating
You keep on pushing me away
Oh, but nothing's gonna change
Waiting for yesterday-ay, day-ay, day-ay

[Verse 2]
Is it worth it any longer? (Any longer)
You're scared of falling again
But yesterday can make you stronger (Stronger)
So, why do you feel alone?
You know I love better than he ever did
And this could be all you ever needed
Hold onto me and just remember (Remember)
Oh no, never let go
[Chorus]
I know that he left you in pieces
You know that I won't be that way
I'm not gonna treat you like he did
Oh, whatever it takes
You think history is repeating
You keep on pushing me away
Oh, but nothing's gonna change
Waiting for yesterday-ay

[Bridge]
I'm the one for you tonight (Tonight)
I'm the one for you forever (Forever)
If it takes a little time (Whatever it takes, whatever it takes)
I'm the one for you tonight (Tonight)
I'm the one for you forever (Forever)
If it takes a little time (Whatever it takes, whatever it takes)

[Chorus]
I know that he left you in pieces
You know that I won't be that way
I'm not gonna treat you like he did
Oh, whatever it takes
You think history is repeating
You keep on pushing me away
Oh, but nothing's gonna change
Waiting for yesterday
I know that he left you in pieces
You know that I won't be that way (That way)
I'm not gonna treat you like he did
Oh, whatever it takes (Whatever it takes)
You think history is repeating
You keep on pushing me away (Me away)
Oh, but nothing's gonna change (No)
Waiting for yesterday-ay, day-ay, day-ay (Day)
Day-ay, day-ay, day-ay
