《Yesterday When I Was Young》歌词

[00:00:00] Yesterday When I Was Young - Matt Monro

[00:00:14] Yesterday when I was young

[00:00:21] The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue

[00:00:28] I teased at life as if it were a foolish game

[00:00:34] The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame

[00:00:41] The thousand dreams I dreamed

[00:00:44] The splendid things I planned

[00:00:48] I always built alas on weak and shifting sand

[00:00:55] I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day

[00:01:02] And only now I see how the years ran away

[00:01:09] Yesterday when I was young

[00:01:15] So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung

[00:01:22] So many wild pleasures lay in store for me

[00:01:29] And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see

[00:01:36] I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out

[00:01:43] I never stopped to think what life was all about

[00:01:49] And every conversation I can now recall

[00:01:57] Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all

[00:02:31] There are so many songs in me that won't be sung

[00:02:38] I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue

[00:02:45] The time has come for me to pay

[00:02:51] For yesterday when I was young
