Dusty Springfield - Yesterday When I Was Young Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • (charles aznavour / herbert kretzmer)
  • Spoken : somehow, it seems the love I knew was always the most destructive kind
  • Yesterday when I was young
  • The taste of life was sweet
  • As rain upon my tongue
  • I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
  • The way the evening breeze
  • May tease the candle flame
  • The thousand dreams I dreamed
  • The splendid things I planned
  • I always built to last on weak and shifting sand
  • I lived by night and shunned the ***** light of day
  • And only now I see how the time ran away
  • Yesterday when I was young
  • So many lovely songs were waiting to be sung
  • So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
  • And so much pain my eyes refused to see
  • I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out
  • I never stopped to think what life was all about
  • And every conversation that I can now recall
  • Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all
  • The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
  • And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died
  • The friends I made all somehow seemed to slip away
  • And only now Im left alone to end the play, yeah
  • Oh, yesterday when I was young
  • So many, many songs were waiting to be sung
  • So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
  • And so much pain my eyes refused to see
  • There are so many songs in me that wont be sung
  • I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
  • The time has come for me to pay for yesterday
  • When I was young
