the face i always longed to see
seems to have faded inside of me
when i look at you you're not the same
you're different than you were yesterday
so i search and search in the you of today
and when i see you i can't help but say
i loved the you of yesterday

but i cannot be a fool to think
that i can ever love the you of today
for "a fool will lose tomorrow reaching back for yesterday"

after getting through all that sorrow
to myself i say
maybe the you of tomorrow
will be the you of yesterday

but when tomorrow comes
you are always the you of today
and never the you of yesterday

so why do i even try
each time i try to say goodbye
i can't help but say
maybe the you of tomorrow
will be the you of yesterday

but you'll never be the you of yesterday
i haven't learned my lesson yet
for every time our eyes are met
i hope and praythat the you of tomorrow
will be the you of yesterday

and every time i try to face my troubles
when i reach the subject of you i run
and run and run
but i constantly look back and think
where is the you of yesterday?
