After long enough of being aloneEveryone must face their share of lonelinessIn my own time, nobody knewThe pain I was goin’ throughAnd waitin’ was all my heart could doHope was all I had until you cameMaybe you can’t see how much you mean to meYou were the dawn breaking the nightThe promise of mornin’ lightFilling the world surroundin’ meWhen I hold youBaby, baby, feels like maybeThings will be all rightBaby, baby, your love’s made meFree as a song, singin’ foreverOnly yesterday when I was sad and I was lonelyYou showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind meTomorrow maybe even brighter than todaySince I threw my sadness awayOnly yesterdayI have found my home here in your armsNowhere else on earth I’d really rather beLife waits for us, share it with meThe best is about to beAnd so much is left for us to seeWhen I hold youBaby, baby, feels like maybeThings will be all rightBaby, baby, your love’s made meFree as a song, singin’ foreverOnly yesterday when I was sad and I was lonelyYou showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind meTomorrow maybe even brighter than todaySince I threw my sadness awayOnly yesterday (only yesterday, only yesterday)Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonelyYou showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind me
