Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet
As rain upon my tongue
I teased at life
As if it were a foolish game
The way an evening breeze
Would tease a candle flame
The thousand dreams I dreamed
The splendid things I planned
I always built to last
On weak and shifting sand
I lived by night
And shunned the naked light of day
And only now I see
How the years run away
Yesterday when I was young
So many happy songs what waited to be sung
So many wild pleasures
Lay and stored for me
And so much pain
My dazzled eyes refused to see
I ran so fast the time
And youth's last run out
And I never stopped to think
What life was all about
And every conversation I can recall
Concerned itself with me
And nothing else at all
Yesterday the moon was blue
And every crazy day
Brought something new to do
I used my magic age
As if it were a wand
And never saw
The waste and emptiness beyond
The game of love
I played with elegance and pride and every flame
I lit too quickly quickly died
The friends I made all
Seem somehow to drift away
And only I am left on stage
To end the play
There are so many songs
And needed won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste of tears
Upon my tongue
And the time has come for me to pay for yesterday
When I was young
