"Yesterday's Girl" lyrics - THE COWSILLS

On the edge of your bed,
In the empty silence,
You sit and you stare.
And though you're not much for looking backwards,
She's almost there.

That magic girl,
Comes from the shadows of your yesterdays.
You find yourself thinkin' 'bout her lovin' ways,
You try to tell yourself that you don't care,
You call her name but she's not there and
Oh then you know that you'd give the world for Yesterday's Girl

All the times when her touch made your heart a dancer,
Have long, long gone by.
You're a man so for a man tears are not the answer,
Your eyes are dry.

Ah but that girl, still moves you in so many hidden ways.
And though you've tried no one else can take her place,
It's been so long you've learned to live without her
But you can't stop from thinking about her.
Oh then you know that you'd give the world for Yesterday's Girl.
(That's when you know that you'd give the world for Yesterday's Girl). Yesterday's Girl

Oh then you know that you'd give the world for Yesterday's Girl.
