You don’t look at me
The way you used to do
How I wish you would
And you don’t say to me
The things that you used to
How I wish you would
How I wish you would

Yesterday
I was a man of pain
I bet I didn’t know where I was goin’
Now I wish I could find the words to say
“Honey, I love you”

Yes, today
I am a man of pain and sorrow
But I know where I’m goin’
But I just wish that I could find the words to say
“Come back to me, honey
I love you more than yesterday”

(Love you more than yesterday)

I can’t sing to you
The way that I used to
How I wish I could (How I wish I could, I wish I could)
And you don’t let me love you
The way you used to let me love you
How I wish I could (How I wish I could)
How I wish I could (How I wish I could), oh, oh
How I wish I could (How I wish I could), yeah, yeah

Yesterday
I was a man of pain
I bet I didn’t know where I was goin’
And now I wish that I could find the words to say
“Honey, I love you”

Yes, today
I am a man of pain and sorrow
But I know where I’m goin’
I just wish that I could find the words to say
“Come back to me, honey
I love you more than yesterday”

Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...
I could find the words to say
“Come back to me, honey
I love you more”

Yesterday
I was a man of pain
I bet I didn’t know where I was goin’
But now I wish that I could find the words to say
“Come back to me, honey
I love you more than yesterday”

(I love you more than, I love you more than)
(I love you more than yesterday)
Come back to me, darlin’
For yesterday
