That Was Yesterday Songtext
von Leon Bridges

Yesterday I had nothing
Didn′t know whether I've amount to something
I had holes in my shoes and in my clothes
Only yesterday

I was just a boy living amongst children
A really guitar that I could play with
I would pretend that anything could happen
That was yesterday

That was yesterday
That was yesterday
No matter how far I′ve come
Still know where I'm from, oh-oh
Never let it slip away

Still trying to figure out
What the game is all about, oh-oh
So I take it day by day by day


Yesterday no one was listening
But today it's gonna be different
They couldn′t hear my voice under the suffering
That was yesterday

Yesterday I had no direction
In my mind I had nothing but questions
I could′ve never dreamed of what would happen
That was yesterday

That was yesterday
That was yesterday
No matter how far I've come
Still know where I′m from, oh-oh
Never let it slip away

Still trying to figure out
The game is all about, oh-oh
So I take it day by day by day

Yesterday I was hoping
Today the future's wide open
I was lost and the signs in my mind
That was yesterday


That was yesterday
That was yesterday
That was yesterday, oh
That was yesterday
That was yesterday
That was yesterday
