Yesterday's Gone

Osborne Brothers · Osborne Brothers 1 (1956-1968) [Bear Family] [1993]

(Chad Stuart - Wendy Kidd)

I love you all the summer through

I thought I found my dream in you

For me you were the one

But that was yeasterday and yesterday's gone,

We walked together hand in hand

Cross miles and miles of golden sand

But now it's over and done

But that was yeasterday and yesterday's gone.

We had such happiness together

I can't believe it's gone forever.

Wait till summer comes again

I hope that you'll remember when

Our love had just begun

I loved you yeasterday but yesterday's gone.

--- Instrumental ---

We had such happiness together

I can't believe it's gone forever.

Wait till summer comes again

I hope that you'll remember when

Our love had just begun

I loved you yeasterday but yesterday's gone.

I loved you yeasterday but yesterday's gone,,,
