Dusty Springfield - Yesterday When I Was Young слова песни
Spoken : Somehow, it seems the love I knew was always the most destructive kind Yesterday when I was youngThe taste of life was sweetAs rain upon my tongueI teased at life as if it were a foolish gameThe way the evening breezeMay tease the candle flame The thousand dreams I dreamedThe splendid things I plannedI always built to last on weak and shifting sandI lived by night and shunned the naked light of dayAnd only now I see how the time ran away Yesterday when I was youngSo many lovely songs were waiting to be sungSo many wild pleasures lay in store for meAnd so much pain my eyes refused to seeI ran so fast that time and youth at last ran outI never stopped to think what life was all aboutAnd every conversation that I can now recallConcerned itself with me and nothing else at all The game of love I played with arrogance and prideAnd every flame I lit too quickly, quickly diedThe friends I made all somehow seemed to slip awayAnd only now I`m left alone to end the play, yeah Oh, yesterday when I was youngSo many, many songs were waiting to be sungSo many wild pleasures lay in store for meAnd so much pain my eyes refused to seeThere are so many songs in me that won`t be sungI feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongueThe time has come for me to pay for yesterdayWhen I was young
