Patti Scialfa - Yesterday's Child lyrics
rate meAnna… in a foreign blue yesterday I saw someone who reminded me of you and I… held my breath and called your name and though I knew it was not you I followed just the same… I wanted to raise the glass to a symphony of miles and say our last farewell to yesterday's child Anna… sweep the doorway clean Let's forgive before we blame and I… will make my own amends with the dust and sin underneath my skin and on my maiden name So let's raise the glass to a symphony of miles and say our last farewell to yesterday's child Anna… in my dreams I open my arms and I'm flying let's do some living forget about the dying… Anna… I've done my thousand days now I'm walking free in time and I… still have my imaginings where there's no struggling… or suffering just cigarettes and wine… So let's raise the glass to a symphony of miles and say our last farewell to yesterday's child
