Verse 1
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
Chorus
Yesterday was just a dream
Nothin's ever what it seems
Tomorrow's comin' - it won't be long
Yesterday is here and gone
Instrumental
Verse 2
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
Chorus
Yesterday was just a dream
Nothin's ever what it seems
Tomorrow's comin' - it won't be long
Yesterday is here and gone
Bridge
Tell me what's it for, this life we're living
The world is cold and unforgiving
And your smile is so serene
Chorus
Yesterday was just a dream
Nothin's ever what it seems
Tomorrow's comin' - it won't be long
Yesterday is here and gone
Outro
Ma, it's here and gone
