Yesterday, When I Was Young - 许冠杰[00:00:00]
Written by:Herbert Kertsmer Charles A[00:00:02]
Yesterday[00:00:08]
When I was young[00:00:11]
The taste of life was sweet[00:00:13]
As rain upon my tongue[00:00:15]
I teased at life[00:00:18]
As if it were a foolish game[00:00:20]
The way the evening breeze[00:00:22]
May tease a candle flame[00:00:24]
The thousand dreams I dreamed[00:00:27]
The splendid things I planned[00:00:29]
I always built alas[00:00:31]
On weak and shifting sand[00:00:34]
I lived by night[00:00:36]
And shunned the naked light of day[00:00:38]
And only now I see[00:00:41]
How the years ran away[00:00:43]
Yesterday[00:00:46]
When I was young[00:00:48]
So many happy songs[00:00:50]
Were waiting to be sung[00:00:52]
So many well pleasures[00:00:54]
Lay in store for me[00:00:57]
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see[00:00:59]
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out[00:01:03]
I never stopped to think[00:01:08]
What life was all about[00:01:10]
And every conversation[00:01:13]
I can now recall concerned[00:01:15]
Itself with me and nothing else at all[00:01:18]
Yesterday[00:01:22]
The moon was blue[00:01:24]
And every crazy day[00:01:26]
Brought something new to do[00:01:29]
I used my magic age[00:01:31]
As if it were a wand[00:01:33]
And never saw the waste[00:01:36]
And emptiness beyond[00:01:38]
The game of love I played[00:01:40]
The arrogance and pride[00:01:43]
And every flame I lit[00:01:45]
Too quickly quickly died[00:01:47]
My friends I made all seemed[00:01:49]
Somehow to drift away[00:01:51]
And only I am left[00:01:54]
On stage to end the play[00:01:56]
There are so many songs[00:01:58]
In me that won't be sung[00:02:01]
I feel the bitter taste[00:02:03]
Of tears upon my tongue[00:02:05]
The time has come for me[00:02:07]
To pay for yesterday[00:02:10]
When I[00:02:13]
Was young[00:02:15]
