If I made a wish for every sacred star
|
Falling just outside of Heaven¡¯s window,
|
If I had the songs from David¡¯s old guitar
|
And the dreams I¡¯ve left behind me on my pillow
|
And if I gave them all to you,
|
If I took the fall for you
|
Could you make it spring ?
|
|
Lady Yesterday,
|
You smiled just like a lover and a friend.
|
Lady Yesterday,
|
You danced like it was yesterday again.
|
|
They say that love¡¯s a paper boat upon the sea,
|
They say that love is a reflection on the river.
|
They say that love¡¯s a thing that¡¯s never meant to be,
|
They say that love¡¯s a thing that¡¯s meant to be forever.
|
And if I gave it all to you,
|
If I took the fall for you,
|
Could you make it spring ?
|
|
Lady Yesterday,
|
You smiled just like a lover and a friend.
|
Lady Yesterday,
|
You danced like it was yesterday again.
|
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm ...
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm ...
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm ...
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm ...
|
|
And if I gave it all to you,
|
If I took the fall for you,
|
Could you make it spring ?
|
|
Lady Yesterday,
|
You smiled just like a lover and a friend,
|
Lady Yesterday,
|
You danced like it was yesterday again.
