《Yesterday When I Was Young》歌词

[00:00:00] Yesterday When I Was Young - Bing Crosby (本·考斯比)

[00:00:12] Yesterday when I was young

[00:00:17] The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue

[00:00:24] I teased at life as if it were a foolish game

[00:00:31] The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame;

[00:00:37] The thousand dreams I dreamed

[00:00:41] The splendid things I planned

[00:00:44] I always built

[00:00:45] Alas on weak and shifting sand;

[00:00:50] I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day

[00:00:56] And only now I see how the years ran away

[00:01:03] Yesterday when I was young

[00:01:09] So many happy songs were waiting to be sung

[00:01:15] So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me

[00:01:21] And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see

[00:01:27] I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out

[00:01:33] I never stopped to think what life was all about

[00:01:40] And every conversation I can now recall concerned itself with me

[00:01:49] And nothing else at all

[00:02:19] The game of love I played with arrogance and pride

[00:02:25] And every flame I lit too quickly quickly died;

[00:02:31] The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away

[00:02:37] And only I am left on stage to end the play

[00:02:43] There are so many songs in me that won't be sung

[00:02:49] I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue

[00:02:55] The time has come for me to pay for Yesterday

[00:03:02] When I was Young
