The Lovin’ Spoonful
Only Yesterday
[Verse 1]
It was only yesterday
We were laughin', children passin'
And we seemed to know our way
As did everyone that day

[Bridge]
Old people shufflin' by
Watched and rest their tired eyes
So lucky to be young
Very young
And then love

[Verse 2]
And it was only yesterday
We were dancin', feelin' lastin'
Then we held our hands in play
As did everyone that day

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
It was only yesterday
We were laughin', children passin'
And they seemed to look our way
As did everyone that day
