Well, I shook the hand of a weeping sparrow

And heard the most beautiful tune

Laid myself down upon a field of flowers

And searched through my dreams to find you

And lost all of yesterday's blues



And I walked in circles confused and scattered

And stumbled around as a fool

Lost in the maze of veins in my heart

'Til I woke up unconscious with you

And let go of yesterday's blues



'Cause you have a way that lets me breathe

And you have a way that sets me free

And you have a heart that can see right through

The bitterness of my yesterday's blues



Down in a city of shelters and shambles

I thought I had nothing to lose

I took for granted the wise words of strangers

And gambled until I was through

And lost all of yesterday's blues



'Cause you have a way that sets me free

And you have a way that lets me breathe

And you have a heart that can see right through

The bitterness of my yesterday's blues



Well, I shook the hand of the deepest sorrow

And waved a goodbye just to lose

Laid myself down below the endless towers

And searched through my dreams to find you

And lost all of yesterday's blues
