The blue ridge mountains were turning green   The last time I saw her face   Rose colored glasses can't hide the pain   Neither can your satin and lace      Chorus:   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow...   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow.   I tried to keep you warm at night   Through the lonely winter snow   Sayin' your wrong is just not right   That's why I have to go...      Our love just got lost along the way   Can't fine our selves eye to eye.      Or face to face...      Chorus:   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow...   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow our love got lost along the way.   I know you'd walk thru fire for me   You showed me in every way   Now it's time to set you free   The words got in my way...      Chorus:   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow...   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow...   I turned my back on yesterday   For a better tommorrow   Our love got lost along the way...   Lost along the way....
