Paul McCartney
wrote the song Yesterday. The song was big sucess. Here are the
Lyrics to the song.
Yesterday Yesterday. All my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh I believe in yesterday. Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be. There's a shadow hanging over me. Oh yesterday came suddenly. Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say. I said something wrong how I long for yesterday. Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play. Now, I need a place to hide away. Oh yesterday came suddenly. Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say. I said something wrong how I long for yesterday. |
