Yesterday I had nothing Didn't know whether I'd amount to something I had holes in my shoes and in my clothes Only yesterday I was just a boy living amongst children Not really a toy that I could play with I would pretend that anything could happen That was yesterday That was yesterday That was yesterday No matter how far I come Still know where I'm from, oh Never let it slip away Still trying to figure out What the game is all about, oh So I take it day by day by day Yesterday no one was listening Today is gonna be different You couldn't hear my voice under the surface That was yesterday Yesterday I had no direction In my mind I had nothing but questions I couldn't never dreamed of what would happened That was yesterday That was yesterday That was yesterday No matter how far I come Still know where I'm from, oh Never let it slip away Still trying to figure out What the game is all about, oh So I take it day by day by day Yesterday I was hoping Today the future's wide open I was lost in the sounds of my mind But that was yesterday That was yesterday That was yesterday That was yesterday, oh That was yesterday That was yesterday That was yesterday
