Yesterday (Circa Summer 80 Somethin)
[Verse]
It was undeniably summer
And I was certifiably cool
With my acid-washed jacket
And my stone-washed jeans
I rose out of the kiddie pool
And you were a walking want-ad
You had summer on your side
Our front yards faced each other's
From across the great divide
And the sunbeams cracked like jumper cables
I was cranking up the Mellencamp
And you were dancing barefoot on a picnic table
And damn it, girl
Truly God-damn it, girl
Truly God-damn it, girl
Truly God-damn!
[Chorus]
I still remember every word you said
Like I always said I would
Since you walked on the water bed
Stood right there in my head
For good
[Verse]
You know you kept some honeysuckle
In that special dresser drawer
And every spring both knees buckle
Both knees buckle and I hit the floor
I hit the floor, every spring
At the hint, of a scent
Of a thought of that
Thing
[Chorus]
I still remember every word you said
Like I always said I would
Since you walked on the water bed
Stood right there in my head
For good
[Bridge]
The easy way
We used to play
When there was no such thing
As yesterday
We threw our two hearts high
The first half felt like
Flying!
[Chorus]
And I still remember every word you said
Like I always said I would
Since you walked on the water bed
Stood right there in my head
For good
