A long long time ago
I was free to roam
A thousand toys scattered round
Home cookin' for the nose
After a winter's playtime
Hot chocolate filled my throat
And the days big turmoil
Was being told to lay my head

Why can't yesterday forever roam?

I once kissed a girl
Under the evergreen tree
Riding home at dusk
To ease my worried mother
I remember saturday
The day away from school
I remember time out
For all the things I've done wrong

Why can't yesterday forever roam

I always wanted so much
To be big and grown up
Now years later I wish
I knew this back then
With every priveledge given
There's ten more things to do
Instinct to over complicate
Our lives day after day

Why can't yesterday forever roam
