We Could Never Say Good-bye To Yesterday © Stephan Feinberg & Sun PK

When I came home today

   I couldn’t figure out the look on your face

Then I saw that old yearbook on your lap

   And it all fell into place

I put my arm around you
As a tear came to your eye

You seemed to be asking me

Why does the passing time make us want to cry?

Chorus:

We could never say good-bye to yesterday

Yesterday lives in our memories

The pictures and the old songs

   Are there to remind us

We could never say good-bye to yesterday

Turning the pages we read again

   Your sweetheart signed ‘love for ever more’

Promises change and so do dreams

   Just look at our kids playin’ next door

The orchid is still in its place

And there it will always remain

Things are different and we seem that way too

But we’re still the same

Chorus

Chorus double:

We could never say good-bye to yesterday

So let’s sit back and enjoy

The good old days

   And the good old days to come ‘cause

We could never say good-bye to yesterday

Bridge:

The time and love we’re shared will never fall apart

They’re carefully pressed between the pages in our hearts
