Yesterday's Sunshine
First performed 2/19/93

Yesterday's Sunshine
Is tomorrow's rainy day
I don't need a reminder
That you went away, hey
But every drop of water
That falls down from the sky
Forces me to remember
The life that passed me by

Yesterday's sunshine
In the corners of my room
I search for some warmness
Persisting through the gloom, oh
But every hint of oasis
Which lifts me from the floor
Just a few minutes later
Leaves me colder than before

Oh, yesterday's sunshine...

Yesterday's sunshine
Touched my skin and left it red
Squeezed right under my eyelids
Pushed the sense out of my head, oh no
Like the rays of a prism
Scattered my thoughts upon a wall
Staring into the sunshine
Is what led me to my fall

Yesterday's sunshine
Is tomorrow's rainy day
I don't need a reminder
That you went away, hey
Yesterday's sunshine
Became a world of gray
Been gone for so long now
Seems like more than just a day

Oh, yesterday's sunshine...
