Lyrics
For 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.
It stood and got flyin' in the air
Well, most of us with our dreams that strayed
Me, I was just heading anywhere
Oh, I'd escape on a perilous game
Leave it all behind
For yesterday
Some of us didn't make it through
Some were beat by a mental stress
I had my brothers to look up to
I was the fortunate one, I guess
And it's all gone now
For yesterday
Yes, it's all gone now
For yesterday
To all of you who aren't past your prime
To all of you in the dirt and grime
To all of you who got lost and tired
For yesterday
Life's journey's long like a marathon
If it's gonna stay you and me
Twenty four years of naggin' on
Don't want our love to be a fading memory
Lost and gone
For yesterday
To all of you who aren't past your prime
To all of you in the dirt and grime
To all of you who got lost and tired
For yesterday
For yesterday
To all of you who aren't past your prime
To all of you in the dirt and grime
To all of you who never had a time
To all of you who got stuck and cried
To all of you who got lost and tired
For yesterday
For yesterday
