Guy Garvey
Yesterday
[Verse 1]
Love came down like a cooling tower
Where an hour glass yesterday
Just dust and self-loathing (ooooh)
And un-returned clothing (ooooh)
The life stands still at an unmanned till
But the slow walk home in the evening chill
Have me feeling pretty virtuous
Until I see her
The flashing indicators of my favourite saboteur
And suddenly

[Chorus]
All my darkest dreams come swimming in to focus
And it's hopeless
To resist you cross your wrist some twisted prayer or supplication
Ten Hail Mary's in the morning

[Verse 2]
She left town like a medicine show
In an oh so familiar scene
And I vowed forever solo (oooh)
Time to focus on the crocuses
Till I'm through it and I'm zen
And I'll do it again
I'm a diligent village idiot toeing the line but watching for a sign
And when this cheap red wine or the big blue moon
Come to me my little ingenue
Suddenly
