King Of Yesterday

Can you still remember

How it seemed that

We could live forever in a lovers dream?

And falling was the best part

But now, you know, the things you cling to

Your heart can start to grow

You, you're walking away

I've been there now, I know what to say

I'm the king of yesterday

A silly little love song for myself

It's all I ever do, you know, I shine the shell

A pretty little picture, the face of you

You were my setting sun and now you're every view

You, you're walking away

I've been there now, I know what to say

I'm the king of yesterday

Why don't, why don't, why don't you stay?

Why don't you stay? Why don't you stay?

Why don't you stay?

Take a little time, throw it on the line

Let me believe that you believe in me

Baby, turn around, look at what I found

You are the one that I want

Take a little time, throw it on the line

Let me believe that you believe in me

Baby, turn around, look at what I found

You were the one that I wanted

And someday, I'll be over on my own

Believing all the legends of the loves I've known

And seeing you in summer

The way we were when you were seventeen

You know, I much preferred you walking away

I've been here, now I know what to say

I'm the king of Yesterday

Why don't, why don't, why don't you stay?

Why don't you stay? Why don't you stay with me? Stay

Take a little time, throw it on the line

Let me believe that you believe in me

Baby, turn around, look at what I found

You are the one that I want

Take a little time, throw it on the line

Let me believe that you believe in me

Baby, turn around, look at what I found

You were the one that I wanted

You were the one that I wanted

King of yesterday, king of yesterday
