《Yesterday When I Was Young (Hier encore)》歌词

[00:00:00] Yesterday When I Was Young (Hier encore) - Tapio Heinonen

[00:00:00] Yesterday when I was young

[00:00:06] The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue

[00:00:11] I teased at life as if it were a foolish game

[00:00:17] The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame

[00:00:22] The thousand dreams I dreamed

[00:00:25] The splendid things I planned

[00:00:28] I always built alas on weak and shifting sand

[00:00:33] I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day

[00:00:39] And only now I see how the years ran away

[00:00:44] Yesterday when I was young

[00:00:49] So many happy songs were waiting to be sung

[00:00:55] So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me

[00:01:00] And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see

[00:01:06] I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out

[00:01:11] I never stopped to think what life was all about

[00:01:16] And every conversation I can now recall

[00:01:22] Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all

[00:01:28] Yesterday the moon was blue

[00:01:33] And every crazy day brought something new to do

[00:01:38] I used my magic age as if it were a wand

[00:01:44] And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond

[00:01:49] The game of love I played with arrogance and pride

[00:01:55] And every flame I lit too quickly quickly died

[00:02:00] The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away

[00:02:06] And only I am left on stage to end the play

[00:02:11] There are so many songs I see that won't be sung

[00:02:17] I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue

[00:02:22] The time has come for me to pay for

[00:02:26] Yesterday when I was young
