Lyrics
Yesterday...
I walked out on love and I put my heart away.
No more games to play
If you don't want my love girl I won't ask you to stay
But all the times we shared with each other
Will still remain a treasured memory
And still you say that there could be no other
The truth is plain to see,
Our love has ceased to be.
Deep inside,
I hoped and prayed that we could keep our love alive
No more alibis
We can't spend all our time on a love we can't revive.
Used to be our dreams were all we knew
We thought that they were all we'd ever need.
But something changed inside of me & you
Love is coming to an end
And there's nothing we can do
It's not to say our love has been in vain
Girl I'm glad you came my way
But you & I must go our seperate ways
And I won't continue hurting you this way
Soon I'll find...
Another love that's strong and sweet like yours & mine
But until that day,
I'll stand back from love with my heart tucked safe away
Yesterday...
I walked out on love and I put my heart away.
