[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com  [00:20.11]Yesterday when I was young, [00:24.41]The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue, [00:29.78]I teased at life as if it were a foolish game, [00:35.06]The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame; [00:40.11]The thousand dreams I dreamed, [00:42.72]The splendid things I planned [00:45.30]I always built, alas, [00:47.72]On weak and shifting sand; [00:50.62]I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day [00:56.10]And only now I see how the years ran away. [01:01.16]Yesterday, when I was young, [01:06.05]So many happy songs were waiting to be sung, [01:11.39]So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me [01:16.58]And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see, [01:22.02]I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out, [01:27.04]I never stopped to think what life was all about [01:32.36]And every conversation [01:35.21]I can now recall concerned itself with me, [01:40.41]And nothing else at all. [02:04.26]Yesterday the moon was blue, [02:09.27]And every crazy day brought something new to do, [02:14.66]I used my magic age as if it were a wand, [02:20.13]And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond; [02:25.26]The game of love I played with arrogance and pride [02:29.93]And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died; [02:35.31]The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away [02:40.64]And only I am left on stage to end the play. [02:45.84]There are so many songs in me that won't be sung, [02:50.92]I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue, [02:56.29]The time has come for me to pay for Yesterday [03:02.90]When I was Young.
