Lyrics for Song: Yesterday
Lyrics for Album: Help! (Remastered) [2009]
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday, mm

Yesterday - The Beatles
Released in 1965 on the Help! album, 'Yesterday' stands as a cornerstone of The Beatles' discography, marking a pivotal shift toward orchestral pop and emotional depth. Written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon-McCartney, the track features a simple acoustic guitar melody that supports a haunting vocal performance, later augmented by a string arrangement. Its commercial success propelled it to number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, making it the band's first number-one single in America. The song's enduring legacy lies in its melodic simplicity and McCartney's innovative use of the piano, influencing countless artists across genres. It remains a definitive example of the group's ability to blend personal sentiment with polished production, cementing their status as pioneers of modern rock music. |
