Hyman, Phyllis - Was Yesterday Such A Long Time Ago Lyrics






It was only yesterday when we were young
When the songs of love we written still were sung
Loathe the world we share was changing much too fast
Both of us were sure our love would last

And God only knows
Was yesterday really such a long time ago?
Please, tell me why it haunts me so
How could I let you go

But my mind keeps circling back
Each time I hear your name while all along
I'm wondering when we were cold
Wondering who's the blame
You opened up a world I'm always dreamed about
Magically, it came true
It all came true
Because I was with you

Every day I tell my self I'm better off
Hoping love will fade away like some old cough
Sure, there's lots of things a broken heart can take
Trouble is it doesn't cure the ache

And God only knows
Was yesterday really such a long, long time ago?
It's torture getting over you
What am I gonna do until tomorrow comes?
Until tomorrow comes
What am I gonna do
Oh, until tomorrow comes
Oo...oo...oo...oo...
Until tomorrow comes
I'm gonna wait for you, baby
Until tomorrow comes

    Been a Phyllis fan from the beginning & just discovered her debut album yesterday which was the 1st gloomy day of fall & put me in one of those 'Listen to Phyllis All Day's moods. Never heard this song before so it makes me ears & heart smile knowing that there is still 'new music' to discover from my favorite female vocalist.

  6. N.... ....

    I'd use cry when my Mother played this and I didn't know why? She'd just say I felt the music's emotion.

  7. j.... ....

    Blessed to arrange this and two other songs on her debut album - Onaje Allan Gumbs

  8. J.... J....

    When we talk about singers this is a SIN-GAH! Her introductions should have always been "The song stylings of..." Jus' sayin'...R.I.P.

    Can't get my CD at the moment & soooo GLAD to you posted it. I used to sing the hell out this song when I lived in an apartment. My upstairs neighbor would bang on the floor when I would go into mode for this one. She can really sing a dramatic ballad with such profound depth with her rich voice. She is a good soul singer & she is just singing & not that yelling like some of them. Yet, she is soooo underrated.

    WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
