Yesterday there was so many things I was never told.
Now that I'm startin' to learn I feel I'm growin' old.
'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me. Old pictures that I'll always see.
Time just fades the pages in my book of memories.

Prayers in my pocket and no hand in destiny.
I'll keep movin' along with no time to plant my feet.
'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me.
Old pictures that I'll always see.
Some things could be better if we'd just let them be.

Ooh, yesterday's got nothin' for me.
Yesterday's ooh, got nothin' for me.


Yesterday there were so many things I was never shown.
Suddenly this time I found I'm on the streets and I'm alone.
Yesterday's got nothin' for me.
Old pictures that I'll always see.
I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties.

Ooh, yesterday's got nothin' for me.
Yesterday's ooh, got nothin' for me.
