Lock the door and close the curtain No more lies, I'm tired of hurtin' I think you know what I mean There's an empty sound that lonely makes Don't know how much more that I can take And yesterday was just a dream Yesterday was just a dream Nothin's ever what it seems Tomorrow's comin' - it won't be long Yesterday is here and gone Words tumble out like an open book While the world was turning, something shook From a whisper to a scream Rain's beatin' down on the window pane Makes me wonder about you again And yesterday was just a dream Yesterday was just a dream Nothin's ever what it seems Tomorrow's comin' - it won't be long Yesterday is here and gone Tell me what's it for, this life we're living The world is cold and unforgiving And your smile is so serene Yesterday was just a dream Nothin's ever what it seems Tomorrow's comin' - it won't be long Yesterday is here and gone Ma, it's here and gone
