歌曲名 Seems Like Only Yesterday

歌手名 Jesse Winchester

I 'll never forget that dreadful day

When I decided to run away

Little sister was playin with

A kitten on the floor

Mama was rockin out on the front porch

And Daddy had gone to the grocery store

And Brother had left the day before

Packed my clothes when no one was lookin

Went out the back door and into the bushes

And down the holler and over the creek

Then up the field and across the field

I jumped the fence and I thumbed a ride

Much too young to realize

That I 'd regret all it by and by

And I wish I had the love that was offered to me

When I was just too young and blind to see

There was a whole lot of love in that old house

But I had to leave to find it out

And it seems like it was only yesterday

And I wish I had the love that was offered to me

When I was just too young and blind to see

There was a whole lot of love in that old house

But I had to leave to find it out

And it seems like it was only yesterday

If I 'd a-known then what I know now

I 'd a-stayed right on my daddy 's old farm

Just a young upstart I thought I was smart

Tried to be a man when I was only a child

But many a time it comes to my mind

To pack my clothes and leave this town

And jump that fence and cross that field

And down the hill and over the creek

An up the holler and through them bushes

And in the back door when no one is lookin

And accept the love that was offered to me

And I wish I had the love that was offered to me

When I was just too young and blind to see

There was a whole lot of love in that old house

But I had to leave to find it out

And it seems like it was only yesterday

And I wish I had the love I threw away
