Yesterdays - Billie Holiday, Lester Young

Yesterdays, yesterdays

Days I knew as happy sweet

Sequestered days, olden days, golden days

Days of mad romance and love

Then gay youth was mine

Truth was mine

Joyous free in flame and life

Then sooth was mine

Sad am I, glad am I

For today I’m dreamin' of yesterdays

Yesterdays, yesterdays

Days I knew as happy sweet

Sequestered days, olden days, golden days

Days of mad romance and love

For then gay youth was mine

Truth was mine

Joyous free in flame and life

Then sooth was mine

Sad am I, glad am I

For today I’m dreamin' of yesterdays
