She was the love of my life
Back in '95
We hardly spent a day or night apart
We were victims of a lonely heart
And i remember that day
It all went away
Yeah, when i think about it even now
I find a reason to smile somehow

Chorus:
'cause i've still got yesterday
Runnin' wild
Yesterday, when i close my eyes
I drift away
Back where i come from
And today might not be fair
And tomorrow may not be there
But i've still got yesterday

Zach was the one to hang around
We all used to drive through town
With the girls in his daddy's car
Said he was gonna be a big league star
But it was rainy one night
And he didn't see the red light
Now there's a stone where he used to be
And everybody cries but me

Repeat chorus

I've heard people say
You learn the future by the past
If it's any indication
Then i'm looking back

'cause i've still got yesterday
Runnin' wild
Yesterday, when i close my eyes
I drift away
Back where i come from

Yesterday, when we had our dreams
Yesterday, loud and free
I steal away and i find that summer sun
Today may not be fair
And tomorrow may not be there
But i've still got yesterday
Runnin' wild
