Only Yesterday      (Dino/Sembello)

It was only yesterday we were laughing,
children passing
And we seemed to know a way
As did everyone that day

Old people shuffling by
Want to rest their tired eyes
So lucky to be young
Very young
And then love

And it was only yesterday we were dancing
Feeling lasting
And we held our hands in play
As did everyone that day

It was only yesterday we were laughing,
children passing
And we seemed to look away
As did everyone that day
