Lyrics

Yesterday's Gone

[Verse 1](x2)

Calm down sweetheart, take the air in

Won't you smile for me?

Wipe the tears away from your eyes

It's not all that it seems

[Chorus](x2)

I opened the window

(Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday)

Let the sunlight there kiss your face

(Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday)

'Cause these days are golden

(Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday)

Golden

(Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday)

[Verse 2](x2)

You've felt sadness, you've felt hunger

But you are still here

Make a space for all the good times

Store them in your heart

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

This is your moment

You gotta take it in

Remind yourself that you've been burned

But blackened, how we know this is your moment

[Chorus]
