Yesterday, Last Year
Echoes of Regret: Threads on the Line
Lyrics
Take a step back one or two and look into my eyes
Reflect on the situation and look into my eyes.
There ain't no secrets here and there still ain't no lies
There are no hidden truths, and there are still no falsehoods.
I hope you still have friends to tell you just in time
I hope you have friends who can advise you in time.
You're wasting your life away, you're threading on the line
You're wasting your life and walking a dangerous path.
And they say
And people are saying...
You're never gonna grow up anyway
You may never mature anyway.
You should have been gone since
You should have left a long time ago,
Yesterday
Since yesterday,
Last year
Last year.
And I'll take
And I'll take...
One of those flights to L.A.
...one of those flights to L.A.
I should have been gone since
I should have left since...
Yesterday
...yesterday,
Last Year
Last year.
Life is getting hard my dear, I tell you I'm alright
Life is becoming challenging, but I assure you I'm okay.
They turn their back on you, they won't give you the time
People turn their backs on you and won't give you the time of day.
Please hold me closer, hear them echo in denial
Please hold me closer, listen to the echoes of denial.
Go live your life your way, they tell you you're on trial
Live your life your way, despite being told you're on trial.
And they say
And people are saying...
You're never gonna grow up anyway
You may never mature anyway.
You should have been gone since
You should have left a long time ago,
Yesterday
Since yesterday,
Last year
Last year.
And I'll take
And I'll take...
One of those flights to L.A.
...one of those flights to L.A.
I should have been gone since
I should have left since...
Yesterday
...yesterday,
Last Year
Last year.
And they say
And people are saying...
You're never gonna grow up anyway
You may never mature anyway.
You should have been gone since
You should have left a long time ago,
Yesterday
Since yesterday,
Last year
Last year.
And I'll take
And I'll take...
One of those flights to L.A.
...one of those flights to L.A.
I should have been gone since
I should have left since...
Yesterday
...yesterday,
Last Year
Last year.
I took a step back more than two and stared you in your eyes
I took a step back more than two and stared into your eyes.
You're holding secrets dear, they hide behind the lies
You're holding onto secrets that are concealed behind lies.
