andy williams - yesterday when i was young كلمات أغنية

yesterday when i was young,
the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue,
i teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
the way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame;
the thousand dreams i dreamed,
the splendid things i planned
i always built, alas,
on weak and shifting sand;
i lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
and only now i see how the years ran away.

– yesterday, when i was young,
so many happy songs were waiting to be sung,
so many wayward pleasures lay in store for me
and so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see,

i ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out,
i never stopped to think what life was all about
and every conversation i can now recall concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all.

yesterday the moon was blue,
and every crazy day brought something new to do,
i used my magic age as if it were a wand,
and never saw the waste and emptiness beyond;
the game of love i played with arrogance and pride
and every flame i lit too quickly, quickly died;
the friends i made all seemed somehow to drift away
and only i am left on stage to end the play.
there are so many songs in me that won’t be sung,
i feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue,
the time has come for me to pay for yesterday
when i was young.

– repeat

- andy williams
