As far as yesterday goes,
I'm really sorry
For causing you pain
as far as anyone knows
You left it for me,
no need to explain
It didn't work out like we hoped it would
I said something that worked so good
And you may still regret
the path you chose
As far as yesterday goes,
won't you forgive me
For losing my head,
came a little too close
Brought back bad memories,
awakened the dead
Like one too many mornings after too much wine
We had ourselves a few good times
But did the higher make up for all the lows?
I don't know,
but you seem to say it's a dream
I'll do it forever in my memory,
as real as you'll ever be
it's all I suppose,
but that's as far as yesterday goes
[Instrumental]
It didn't work out
like we hoped it would
I said something that worked so good
And you may still come out
smelling like a rose,
like a rose
But you seem to say it's a dream
I'll never say a word about what it used to be
Agreed to disagree,
one too many lows,
brought things too close
But you seem to say it's a dream
I'll do it forever in my memory,
as real as you'll ever be
It's all I suppose,
but that's as far as yesterday goes
