Yesterday's Girl - The Cowsills

On the edge of your bed

In the empty silence

You sit and you stare

And though you’re not much for looking backwards

She’s almost there

That magic girl

Comes from the shadows of your yesterdays

You find yourself thinkin' 'bout her lovin' ways

You try to tell yourself that you don’t care

You call her name but she’s not there and

Oh, then you know that you’d give the world for yesterday’s girl

All the times when her touch made your heart a dancer

Have long, long gone by

You’re a man so for a man tears are not the answer

Your eyes are dry

Ah, but that girl, still moves you in so many hidden ways

And though you’ve tried no one else can take her place

It’s been so long you’ve learned to live without her

But you can’t stop from thinking about her

Oh, then you know that you’d give the world for yesterday’s girl

(That's when you know that you’d give the world for yesterday’s girl)

yesterday’s girl

Oh, then you know that you’d give the world for yesterday’s girl…
