[Intro]
Why'd he have to go?
I don't know, he didn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday

[Verse 1]
Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as if they're here to stay
But I believe in yesterday

[Verse 2]
Suddenly
I'm not half the girl I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
'Cause yesterday came suddenly, suddenly, suddenly

[Bridge]
Why'd he have to go?
I don't know, he didn't say
'Cause I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday

[Verse 3]
Yesterday
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
'Cause I believe in yesterday
[Bridge]
Why'd he have to go?
I don't know, the boy wouldn't say
'Cause I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday, yesterday, hey

[Verse 3]
'Cause love
Was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday

[Outro]
Yesterday
