I Feel Like Buddy Holly

I watched the planes come in

On the early morning flights

But I could not stand

To see them land without you

Now I'm thumbin' through my 45s

On another endless night

And the same old lines

Goin' back in time tell me this is nothin' new

Well, I feel like Buddy Holly

'Cause it's rainin' in my heart

All the sad songs take me back to you

Now that we are apart

Now I know how Paul McCartney felt

When he got up to say

"I wish it was yesterday"

So I sit here playin' Solitaire

It's a game I know so well

Ever since that day

When you called to say "It's over"

Now I've made my reservation

At the Heartbreak Hotel

While I'm livin' without you

I'm thinkin' about you like only the lonely do

Well, I feel like Buddy Holly

'Cause it's rainin' in my heart

All the sad songs take me back to you

Now that we are apart

Now I know what Paul Simon meant

By the words he found

"I wish I was homeward bound"

Well, I feel like Buddy Holly

'Cause it's rainin' in my heart

All the sad songs take me back to you

Now that we are apart

Now I know how Paul McCartney felt

When he got up to say

"I wish it was yesterday"

"I wish it was yesterday"

"I wish it was yesterday"
