Yesterday

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I thought I saw you yesterday

But I didn't stop, 'cause you was walkin' the opposite way

I guess I coulda' shouted out ya name

But even if it was you, I don't know what I would say

We could sit and reminisce about the old school

Maybe share a cigarette, because we both fools

Chop it up and compare perspectives

Life, love, stress and set-backs, yes

So you could tell me how hard you had it

And you could show me all the scars to back it

And we could analyze each complaint

Break it down and explain these mistakes I make

I like to tangle up the strings of the puppetry

But you knew me back when I was a younger me

You seen Sean in all types of light

And I've been meanin' to ask you if I'm doin' alright

Yesterday

Was that you? Looked just like you

Strange thangs my imagination might do

Take a breath, reflect on what we been through

Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?

I'm shook, I know, I pushed when I shoulda' pulled

Took it all back if I could, I put that on my soul

And I would make a top-notch good listener

If you could block-off a little time out to give it here

Since we went our separate paths

I've hit a couple snags that remind me of the past

I can't front, I'm havin' a blast

But damned if I ain't afraid of how long it's gonna last

Sittin' here wishin' we could kick it

Give me your opinions, I do miss your criticisms

I didn't mean to be distant, make a visit

I'll wait up and keep the coffee brewin' in the kitchen

But who am I jokin' wit'?

There's no way that you and I will ever get to re-open it

It doesn't matter, this is more than love

And maybe if I'm lucky, get to see you out the corner of

Yesterday

Was that you? Looked just like you

Strange thangs my imagination might do

Take a breath, reflect on what we been through

Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?

And when you left, I didn't see it comin'

I guess I slept, it ain't like you was runnin'

You crept out the front door slow

And I was so self-absorbed I didn't even know

And by the time I looked up it was booked up

Put it all behind you, the bad and the good stuff

A whole house full of dreams and steps

I think you'd be impressed with the pieces I kept

You disappeared but the history is still here

It's why I try not to cry over spilt beer

I can't even get mad that you're gone

Leavin' me was probably the best thing you ever taught me

I'm sorry, it's official

I was a fist-full, I didn't keep it simple

Chip on the shoulder, anger in my veins

Had so much hate, now it brings me shame

Never thought about the world wit'out you

And I promise that I'll never say

another bad word about you

I thought I saw you yesterday

But I knew it wasn't you, 'cause you passed away, dad

Looked just like you

Strange thangs my imagination might do

Take a breath, reflect on what we been through

Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
