lirik lagu yesterday when i was young – matt monro
yesterday, when i was young,
the taste of life was sweet, as rain upon my tongue,
i teased at life, as if it were a foolish game,
the way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame
the thousand dreams i dreamed, the splendid things i
planned,
i always built, alas, on weak and shifting sand,
i lived by night, and shunned the naked light of day,
and only now, i see, how the years ran away
yesterday, when i was young,
so many drinking songs were waiting to be sung,
so many wild pleasures 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,
i never stopped to think, what life, was all about,
and every conversation, i can now recall,
concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all
yesterday, the moon was blue,
and every crazy day, brought something new to do,
i used my magic age, as if it were a wand,
and never saw the worst, and the emptiness beyond
the game of love i played, with arrogance and pride,
and every flame i lit, too 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,
the time has come for me to pay,
for yesterday, when i was young
