Yesterday, Yes A Day - Jane Birkin

Yesterday Yes a day

Like any day

Alone again for every day

Seemed the same sad way

To pass the day

The sun went down without me

Suddenly someone else

Has touched my shadow

He said: Hello

Yesterday Yes a day

Like any day

Alone again for every day

Seemed the same sad way

He tried to say

What did you do without me

Why are you crying alone

On your shadow

He said: I know

Yesterday Yes a day

Like any day

Alone again for every day

Seemed the same sad way

To pass the day

The sun went down without you

Falling me in his arms

I become a shadow

He said: Let’s go

Yesterday Yes a day

Like any day

Alone again for every day

Seemed the same sad way

To pass the day

Living my life without him

Don’t let him go away

He’s found my shadow

Don’t let him go

Yesterday Yes a day

But today

No I don’t care

If others say

It’s the same sad way

To pass the day

Cause they all live without it

Without making love

In the shadows

Today: I know
