Donny Hathaway
Yesterday
[Intro]
This time we'd like to do for you
A beautiful number that was recorded and written by The Beatles
It is entitled "Yesterday"
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday

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

[Bridge]
Why she had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
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
Oh, I believe in yesterday
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Oh, don't you know I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday

Why she had to go, Lord, I don't know
She wouldn't say
I must have said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday

[Outro]
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday, mhm
Oh, I believe in yesterday
'Cause love was such an easy game to play, yeah
