Yesterday,
When my love was so far away,
In the arms of another man
Don't ya know it made my heart beat slow
In the past,
I had a lover made my heart beat fast
She made me feel good good good
She met me right were I stood
Chorus:
When will I?
Oh, when will I?
Oh, when will I?
When will I look back and laugh?
When will I?
Oh when will I?
When I look back at life,
When will I look back and laugh?
Once upon,
A time when my heart was strong
I was younger and I didn't much care
I said love can come and hurt me there
Now's the time
I've been broken in full force
I decided I was wrong, wrong, wrong
I hope I didn't wait too long
Chorus
Some time ago,
I left a woman 'cuz she couldn't let go
I was puttin' on my walkin' shoes
She was singing up some genuine blues
I've lived a life
Full of lovers and troubles and strife
Now I'm figuring out what went wrong
While I'm sittin' here singing this song
Chorus
