I remember as a kid wishin' I was seventeen No more school, my own car Back then it was all a dream Then came the day to say goodbye To the room that was once mine One last look at my old world then I closed the door behind, to Yesterday, everything was easy Livin' life like there was no tomorrow Now everyday memories still remind me How good things used to be yesterday Well thirty-five soon rolled around And everything had changed I could count friends on one hand and The good times weren't the same But finally I cam to understand why people say Don't spend all your childhood wishin' The best years away Yesterday, everything was easy Livin' life like there was no tomorrow Now everyday memories still remind me How good things used to be yesterday Now I'm longin' for the freedom That I let slip away I took it all for granted Now it's gone like yesterday Yesterday, everything was easy Livin' life like there was no tomorrow Now everyday memories still remind me How good things used to be, yesterday When everything was easy Livin' life like there was no tomorrow Now everyday memories still remind me How good things used to be yesterday Remembering all those years, yesterday
