Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yesterday I got so old
I felt like I could die
Yesterday I got so old
It made me want to cry
[PreChorus]
Go on, go on
Just walk away
Go on, go on
Your choice is made
Go on, go on
And disappear
Go on, go on
Away from here
[Chorus]
And I know I was wrong
When I said it was true
That it couldn't be me
And be her in between
Without you
Without you
[Verse 2]
Yesterday I got so scared
I shivered like a child
Yesterday away from you
It froze me deep inside
[PreChorus]
Come back, come back
Don't walk away
Come back, come back
Come back today
Come back, come back
What can't you see?
Come back, come back
Come back to me
[Chorus]
And I know I was wrong
When I said it was true
That it couldn't be me
And be her in between without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
[Chorus]
Without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
