    yesterday when i was young
    yesterday when i was young
    the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
    i teased at life as if it were a foolish g ame,
    the way the evening breeze may tease a candle fl ame.
    the thousand dreams i dreamed, the splendid things i planned
    i always built alas on weak and shifting sand.
    i lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day
    and only now i see how the years ran away.

    yesterday when i was young
    so many drinking songs were waiting to be sung,
    so many wayward pleasures lay in store for me
    and so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see.
    i ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out,
    i never stopped to think what life was all about
    and every conversation i can now recall
    concerned itself with me and nothing else at all.

    yesterday the moon was blue
    and every crazy day brought something new to do.
    i used my magic age as if itwere a wand
    and never saw the waste and emptiness beyond.
    the g ame of love i played with arrogance and pride
    and every flame i lit too quickly quickly died.
    the friedns i made all seemed somehow to drift away
    and only i am left on stage to end the play.
    there are so many songs in me that won't be sung,
    i feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue.
    the time has come for me to pay for yesterday when i was young.
