Just Yesterday
Just yesterday
I was thinking if someday
I could find
Someone who could love me
Just yesterday
A woman crossed my path
Made me believe
That loving her would make me happy
Just yesterday
I held that woman in my arms
And kissed her without reason
Thought that’s how I’d be happy
Today I woke up
Thinking about her
And I realized
We were both wrong
Neither of us knew how to love
Just yesterday
I was thinking if someday
I could find
Someone who could love me
Today I woke up
And saw the street and saw the people
Everything's gray and meaningless
People live without believing
Just yesterday
I thought I’d live my life happily
Today I understood
That I was happy just yesterday
Original lyrics
Just yesterday
In school they taught me
That this country
Is big and has freedom
Today I woke up
And saw my bed and saw my room
This month I didn’t have much to eat
Just yesterday
My family told me
That today you need to have
Money to be happy
Today I woke up
And saw my bed and saw my room
Everything's gray and meaningless
People live without believing
Just yesterday
There was a girl in my room
And I kissed her without reason
Today that girl is gone
Just yesterday
I saw a girl in my arms
This month
I didn’t have much to eat
Just yesterday
I went out to the street and saw the people
Everything's gray and meaningless
People live without believing
Without believing
