Yesterday's Not Here Lyrics - Pete Shelley

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 

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
