IN THE STYLE OF
RUY CLARK

KEY OF (Dml
TIME 319

(SPOKEN)

SEEMS THE LOVE
I'VE KNOWN
HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE
MOST DESTRUCTIVE KIND

GUESS THAT'S WHY
NOW

I FEEL 80 OLD
BEFORE MY TIME

YESTERDAY
WHEN I WAS YOUNG
THE TASTE OF LIFE
WAS SWEET
AS RAIN
UPON MY TONGUE

I TEASED AT LIFE
AS IF IT WERE A
FOOLISH GAME
THE WAY THE
EVENING BREEZE MAY
TEASE A CANDLE FLAME

A THOUSAND DREAMS
I DREAMED
THE SPLENDID THINGS
I PLANNED
I ALWAYS BUILT T0 LAST
0N WEAKENED
SHIFTING SAND

I LIVE BY NIGHT
AND SHUN THE
NAKED LIGHT 0F DAY
AND ONLY NOWI SEE
HOW THE YEARS
RAN AWAY

YESTERDAY
WHEN I WAS YOUNG
SO MANY HAPPY SONGS
WERE WAITING
TO BE SUNG

SO MANY WILD
PLEASURES
LAY IN STORE FOR ME
AND SO MUCH PAIN
MY DAZZLED EYES
REFUSED TO SEE

EID... Emm 55m

CONCERNS ITSELF
WTH ME
AND NOTHING ELSE

AT ALL

EBBAR
INSTRUMENTAL

BREAK

YESTERDAY
THE MOON WAS BLUE
AND EVERY CRAZY DAY
BROUGHT SOMETHING
NEW TO DO

I USED MY MAGIC AGE
AS IF IT WERE A WAND
AND NEVER SAW
THE WASTE
AND EMPTINESS BEYOND

THE GAME OF LOVE
I PLAYED
WITH ARROGANCE
AND PRIDE
AND EVERY FLAME I LIT

T00 QUICKLY
QUICKLY DIED
THE FRIENDS I MADE
ALL SEEMED
SOMEHOW
T0 DRIFT AWAY
AND ONLY I AM LEFT

THE TIME HAS COME
FOR ME
TO PAY FOR YESTERDAY
WHEN I WAS YOUNG
