Creighton Doane - My Name Is Yesterday lyrics

rate me

(Doane) Your tea gets cold but there's nobody to drink it I make the bed but no bodies roll and wrinkle it the conversation lacks a little flare I'll just go on talking as if you're still there I know my name is yesterday and though you may be done with me I'm holding on to yesterday because today has slipped away You gave it back now you wear it to remind me but it doesn't work it's the very tie that binds me I pretend that you would be my precious bride but in my heart I know you wouldn't even heave a sigh I have a fear of being left behind it seems to happen all the time you told me you had to get away so I guess my name is yesterday looking at our history I can see a place I'd rather be but you can see things another way so I guess my name is yesterday I pass your street I have to take a second look I just strain my eyes are you happy now you're off the hook my imagination hits me like a stone I can see quite clearly that you're not at home
