Yesterdays Songtext
von Carmen McRae

Yesterdays
Yesterdays
Days I knew as happy, sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days
Golden days
Days of mad romance and love

Then gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Joyous, free, and flaming life
Forsooth was mine
Sad am I
Glad am I
For today, I′m dreaming of yesterdays


Yesterdays
Yesterdays
Days I knew as happy, sweet, sequestered days
Olden days
Golden days of mad romance and love

Then gay youth was mine
I looked around, and truth was mine
Joyous, free, and flaming life, forsooth, was mine
Sad am I
Glad am I
For today, I'm dreaming of
Today, I′m dreaming of
I'm dreaming of

Then gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Joyous, free, and flaming life, forsooth, was mine
Sad am I
Glad am I
For today, I'm dreaming of yesterdays
Yesterdays
