Lyrics
Yesterday’s memories are still in my heart
Where is the love that we knew?
Two foolish sweethearts who drifted apart
Let’s start all over, please do
Chorus:
I’d give a million tomorrows
For just one yesterday
I’d give a million to hold you
The same sweet tender way
I know that I’m to blame
I can’t tell a lie
I’ve never been the same
Since we said “Goodbye”
I’d give up every possession
If you’d come back to stay
I’d give a million tomorrows
For just one yesterday
