13 Clarissa May - Yesterday when I was young - Musik
Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet
Like rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if it
Were a foolish game
The way an evening breeze
Would tease a 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 naked light of day
And only now I see how the
Years have run away
Yesterday when I was young
So many songs
That waited to be sung
So many wild pleasures that
Lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled
Eyes refused to see
I ran so fast that time and
Youth at last ran out and
I never stopped to think
What life was all about
And every conversation
That I can recall
Concerned itself with me
And nothing else at all
Yesterday the moon was blue
And every crazy day brought
Something new to do
And I used my magic age
As if it were a wand
And never saw the waste
And emptiness beyond
The game of love I played
With arrogance and pride
And every flame I lit so
Quickly quickly died
The friends I made all
Seemed somehow to drift away
And only I am left on
Stage to end the play
There are so many songs in
Me that won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste
Of tears upon my tongue
And the time has come for
Me to pay for yesterday
When I was young
Yesterday when I was young
So many songs
That waited to be sung
So many wild pleasures that
Lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled
Eyes refused to see
Yesterday when I was young
So many songs
That waited to be sung
So many wild pleasures that
Lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled
Eyes refused to see
There are so many songs in
Me that won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste
Of tears upon my tongue
And the time has come for
Me to pay for yesterday
When I was young
