That was yesterday

I thought I knew you well
But all this time I could never tell
I let you get away
Haunts me every night and every day
You were the only one
The only friend that I counted on
How could I watch you walk away
I´d give anything to have you here today
But now I stand alone with my pride
And dream that you´re still by my side
But that was yesterday
I had the world in my hands
But it´s not the end of my world
Just a slight change of plans
That was yesterday
But today life goes on
No more hiding in yesterday
´Cause yesterday´s gone
Love, my love I gave it all
Thought I saw the light
When I heard you call
Life that we both could share
Has deserted me
Left me in despair
But now I stand alone with my pride
Fighting back the tears I never let myself cry
But that was yesterday
Love was torn from my hands
But it´s not the end of my world
Just a little hard to understand
That was yesterday
But today life goes on
You won´t find me in yesterday´s world
Now yesterday´s gone
Goodbye yesterday
Now it´s over and done
Still I hope somewhere deep in your heart
Yesterday will live on
But all this time I could never tell
I let you get away
Haunts me every night and every day
You were the only one
The only friend that I counted on
How could I watch you walk away
I´d give anything to have you here today
But now I stand alone with my pride
And dream that you´re still by my side
But that was yesterday
I had the world in my hands
But it´s not the end of my world
Just a slight change of plans
That was yesterday
But today life goes on
No more hiding in yesterday
´Cause yesterday´s gone
Love, my love I gave it all
Thought I saw the light
When I heard you call
Life that we both could share
Has deserted me
Left me in despair
But now I stand alone with my pride
Fighting back the tears I never let myself cry
But that was yesterday
Love was torn from my hands
But it´s not the end of my world
Just a little hard to understand
That was yesterday
But today life goes on
You won´t find me in yesterday´s world
Now yesterday´s gone
Goodbye yesterday
Now it´s over and done
Still I hope somewhere deep in your heart
Yesterday will live on
