Yesterday's Man

They used to hang on his every word

But now nobody hears what he says

How does he cope, because now there's no hope for him

Now that his dream is dead?

'Cause life is very short, be careful you don't fall

Now he feels so small, since he lost it all

With his head pressed into his hands

He's yesterday's man, yesterday's man

He used to have this whole world at his feet

But now no one remembers his face

How does he cope, because now there's no hope for him

Now that he's fallen from grace

'Cause life is very short, be careful you don't fall

Now he feels so small, since he lost it all

With his head pressed into his hands

He's yesterday's man, yesterday's man

If he could live his lifetime over

Would he make the same mistakes?

If he could live his lifetime over

Would he pay the price he's paid?

He's not the man he was

If he could live his lifetime over

Would he make the same mistakes?

If he could live his lifetime over

Would he pay the price he's paid?

He's not the man he was

'Cause he's yesterday's man

Yesterday's man, yesterday's man

Yesterday's man
