Lyrics
Just One 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 of angels, choking on their halos
Get them drunk on rose water
See how dirty I can get them
Pulling out their fragile teeth
And clip their tiny wings
Anything you say can
And will be held against you
So only say my name
It will be held against you
Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name
If heaven's grief brings hell's rain
Then I'd trade all my tomorrows
For just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news) for just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows
For just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news) for just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you) for just one yesterday
Letting people down is my thing baby
Find yourself a new gig
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
I don't have the right name, or the right looks
But I have twice the heart
Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name
It will be held against you
Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name
If heaven's grief brings hell's rain
Then I'd trade all my tomorrows
For just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news) for just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you) for just one yesterday
If I spilled my guts
The world would never look at you the same way
Now I'm here to give you hope my love
So I can watch your face
As I take it all away away away-ay-yay
If heaven's grief brings hell's rain
Then I'd trade all my tomorrows
For just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news) for just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you) for just one yesterday
