Yesterday, When I Was Young:Julio Iglesias.
Album - Starry Night - 1990.
#1.
YesterDm7day, when I was G7young,
the taste of life was Cm7sweet, as rain upon my Fm7tongue,
I teased at life, as Fmif it were a foolish E7game,
the way the evening Ambreeze may Etease a candleA7 flame.
#2.
The thousand dreams I Dm7dreamed, the splendid things I G7planned,
I always built, Cm7alas, on weak and shifting Fm7sand,
I lived by night, and Fmshunned the naked light of E7day,
and only now, I Amsee, how the Eyears ranA7 away.
#3.
YesterDm7day, when I was G7young,
so many happy Cm7songs were waiting to be Fm7sung,
so many wayward Dm7pleasures lay in store for E7me,
and so much pain, my Amdazzled eyes Erefused toA7 see.
I ran so fast that Dm7time, and youth at last ran G7out,
I never stopped to Cm7think, what life, was all about,
and every converDm7sation, I can now reE7call,
concerned itself with Amme, and Enothing else atA7 all.
#4.
YesterDm7day, the moon was G7blue,
and every crazy Cm7day, brought something new to Fm7do,
I used my magic Fmage, as if it were a E7wand,
and never saw the Amwaste, and Eemptiness beA7yond.
The game of love I Dm7played, with arrogance and G7pride,
And every flame I Cm7lit, too quickly, quickly died,
the friends I made, all Fmseemed, somehow, to drift E7away,
and only I am Amleft, on Estage, to end the A7play.
#5.
There are so many Dm7songs in me, that won't be G7sung,
I feel the bitter Cm7taste, of tears upon my tongue,
the time has come for Dm7me to pay for yesterE7day..
when I was Amyoung.Dm Am
A nineties smash from Kraziekhat.
