英语歌曲:Yesterday Man

Yesterday Man
Written by Roz Bell & James Robertson

Baby, I’ll be loving you long after the rain
Has washed away your memory and watered down the pain
I know that I’ve been playing in the streets a little late
I’ve done some foolish shit, I know I’ve made a few mistakes

Chorus¹:
But I don’t wanna be your yesterday man
Baby, could you let me back in

I’m so lonely, not only when you leave me, oh, oh (2x)

The street’s a little colder when you’re all up on my mind
I can’t keep on pretending like I’m truly satisfied
I’m not a fucking rock, you know, I feel these troubles too
So don’t keep on playing like it’s all about you

Chorus:
Cause I don’t wanna be your yesterday man
Baby, could you let me back in

I’m so lonely, not only when you leave me, oh, oh (2x)

Hush², we can’t keep livin’ this way
We was supposed to be mad lovers, not just tricks of the trade
I’m in a rage, but I can’t let my feelings show
There’s more to life than falling hard then waking up all alone, ya know?
You used to let me know life wasn’t hard
Now I’m scarred³ by the lies that’s been told to my heart
Cause life ain’t nothing but a birth and a death
And I’m stuck in the middle, still struggling for breath

I’m so lonely, not only when you leave me, oh, oh
I’m so lonely, not only when you leave me, oh, oh (2x)
