Yesterday, There was so many things  I was never told  Now that I'm startin' to learn  I feel I'm growing old    'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me  Old pictures that I'll always see  Time just fades the pages  In my book of memories  Prayers in my pocket  And no hand in destiny  I'll keep on movin' along  With no time to plant my feet    'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me  Old pictures that I'll always see  Some things could be better  If we'd all just let them be    Yesterday's got nothin' for me  Yesterday's got nothin' for me  Got nothin' for me    Yesterday, There was so many things  I was never shown  Suddenly this time I found  I'm on the streets and I'm all alone    Yesterday's got nothin' for me  Old pictures that I'll always see  I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties    Yesterday's got nothin' for me  Yesterday's got nothin' for me  Yesterday's got nothin' for me  Yesterday    Yesterday
