Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I, I believe in yesterday
[Verse 2]
Suddenly, people, I ain't half the man I used to be, no
There's a heavy, heavy shadow hanging over me
Yesterday came all too suddenly
[Verse 3]
Why did she have to go? I don't know
Say, I don't know, the little girl wouldn't say
Ooh, I must've, must've said something wrong
Now I long, long, long, long for yesterday
[Verse 4]
Oh, talking 'bout yesterday
Love, love, love, such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away, Lord, I
I believe now in yesterday
[Verse 5]
Well, I must've said something wrong
Now I long, long for yesterday
[Verse 6]
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I, I believe in
I want you to know I believe in yester-yester-yesterday
Written by: John Lennon, Paul McCartney
