Last night I laid in bed and thought about it all, (whoa)
What was it that had made us fall' (whoa)
I don't regret anything that I said to you, (whoa)
The choice we made was something we already knew,
And I'm finding...

Yesterday, you know, will never go away,
It's best to leave behind if we want to find ourselves some peace of mind,
Yesterday was when we were happy,
For tomorrow there is hope, but today is hard and lonely, so it goes.

I have to set what I want for us all aside, (whoa)
Without that it would be a lie (whoa)
I know inside now, where I am, that this is right, (whoa)
From here on out it will be hard, I can't deny,
And I'm finding...

Yesterday, you know, will never go away,
It's best to leave behind if we want to find ourselves some peace of mind,
Yesterday was when we were happy,
For tomorrow there is hope, but today is hard and lonely, so it goes.

And, yes, I am afraid of what I can't forsee,
Will you still be there'
Will you be the same' Will those feelings change'
These thoughts I cannot bear.

Do you stop to think about a time when we were without doubt, when love was something new and so unknown' (love was something new and so unknown)
Can we call ourselves just friends' - 'Cause why should this just have to end, and do you know why I must be alone' (do you know why I must be alone')
