Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yesterday I was hard as stone
Yesterday I had a home
Yesterday I didn't question why
But today I just sit down and cry
Tomorrow I'll look life in the eye
Tomorrow I won't sit here and cry
Tomorrow I'll be brave and strong
But today my whole life is wrong
[Verse 2]
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Do you want to know why? (Know why)
My man has gone (He's gone)
Do you want to know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Leaving me in misery
[Verse 3]
Yesterday I laughed at my sorrows
Yesterday I looked forward to tomorrow
'Cause yesterday you were here by my side
But today is the saddest day of my life
[Verse 4]
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
My man has gone (He's gone)
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Leaving me in misery
[Verse 5]
Yesterday I laughed at my sorrows
Yesterday I looked forward to tomorrow
And yesterday you were here by my side
But today is the saddest day of my life
[Verse 6]
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
My man has gone (He's gone)
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Leaving me in misery
[Verse 7]
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
My man has gone (He's gone)
Do you wanna know why? (Know why)
He's gone (He's gone)
