All my world seemed so empty
Till you happened along
You filled my heart with laughter
and my soul with a song
But my joy was short-lived dear
By your actions that day
When you left me with nothing
But my dreams of yesterday

 

All my friends tried to warn me

They said you'd find someone new

But I wouldn't listen
I had hopes you'd be true

Now this yearnin' and burnin'

Is in my heart to stay

There's no hope for tomorrow

Just my dreams of yesterday

All the birds stop their singing

When I happen along

They must know I am lonely

 And suspect something's wrong

They just know half the story

That's in my heart to stay

There's no hope for tomorrow

Just my dreams of yesterday
