Looking back on life is such a retrospective thing
  Hoping for some nice advice that only you could bring
  But you came as in a storm when the woolly dreams were shorn off my back
  Suffer cold reality's sting
  
  All my life that I remember was a drag
  Even though it wasn't so good it was all that I'd had
  Now I've seen it slip away and tomorrow's just another day
  To find relief from feeling sad
  
  Yesterday's not here no more
  It's gone for good and I'm glad 'cos it made me sore
  All the things that might have been
  Are seen by me as regrets that my memory stores

  But from all my time the things I have seen
  Have I seen you or have I been
  A mirror of what you wanted to be
  Just almost like you were to me
  To me, to me, to me
  
  Yesterday's not here no more
  It's gone for good and I'm glad 'cos it made me sore
  All the things that might have been
  Are seen by me as regrets that my memory stores
  
  Yesterday's not here no more
  Oh yesterday's not here no more
  Oh yesterday's not here no more
  Oh yesterday's not here no more
  Oh yesterday's not here no more
