[Verse 1]
Just yesterday
I cast my eyes upon your lovely face
But that was yesterday
Now just a dream
A dream that lives inside a memory
Wish it could be reality
[Chorus]
Shine on yesterday
Carry me away
And let me be back in your arms
Holding you again
Shine on yesterday
Carry me away to be with you
Somehow I let my dreams come true
[Verse 2]
You know sometimes
I stop and stare no matter where I am
Thinking of you again
Once in a while I call your name out loud
Hoping you'll hear
Hoping my prayer will bring you here
Oh yes
[Chorus]
Shine on yesterday
Carry me away
And let me be back in your arms
Holding you again
Shine on yesterday
Carry me away to be with you
'Cause this is for real
My one and only dream
I ever wanted to come through
[Interlude]
Shine on yesterday...
Shine on yesterday...
Shine on...yesterday
[Chorus]
'Cause this is for real
My one and only dream
I ever wanted to come through
[Outro]
Shine on yesterday...
Holding you again
Shine on, oh yeah
...to be with you
Somehow I let my dreams come true
...to be with you
'Cause this is for real
My one and only dream
I ever wanted to come true
