If Only It Were Yesterday Songtext

If only it were yesterday when time belong to me So many things I've yet to do so many sights to see A thousand lines I never wrote and songs I've never sung If only it were yesterday when still the world was young If only it were yesterday when I was still a king When winter could be wished away and overnight was spring When all the world was spinning in a plan of my design If only it were yesterday when still your love was mine Yesterday pain was something I could never know Such a long, long time ago If you were here beside me now I'd never ask for more For I have come to realize What every day is for I need you here to bring the sun My world has turned to gray If only it were yesterday before you'd gone away
