Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What happened to the world we knew
When we would dream and scheme
And while the time away
Yester-me, yester-you, yesterday

[Verse 2]
Where did it go? That yester glow
When we could feel
The wheel of life turn our way
Yester-me, yester-you, yesterday

[Verse 3]
I had a dream so did you
Life was warm and love was true
Two kids who followed all the rules
Yester-fools and now

[Verse 4]
And now, now it seems
Those yester dreams were just a cruel
And foolish game we used to play
Yester-me, yester-you, yesterday

[Verse 5]
When I recall what we had
I feel lost, I feel sad
With nothing but the memory of
Yester-love, and now
Now it seems those yester-dreams
Were just a cruel and foolish game we used to play
Yester-me, yester-you, yesterday
Yester-me, yester-you, yesterday
Yester-me, yester-you, yesterday

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
