Yesterday Is Mine Lyrics - Singles - Bryant Richard

Richard Bryant 

Nobody knows it's yesterday way back here on the farm 

Everybody's walking backwards, summer's cold and winter's warm 

We breathe in CO2 and exhale oxygen, drink water, bathe in wine 

It's a life, not the life I meant to lead, but I don't bleed 

Cause yesterday is mine 

She packed up my tomorrows in a suitcase full of sand 

She scalped my ticket to the future and laid the money in my hand 

She bricked up all the windows, called a cab and hung some laundry on the line 

She broke the day in two and tried to give me half but I gave it back 

Cause yesterday is mine 

So I meet her every morning in a time that used to be 

And sing her seven love songs from the twentieth century 

She sighs and she whispers like a breeze blowing steady through the pines 

And we don't discuss the future since yesterday is here to stay 

And yesterday is mine 

Yesterday is mine
