It seemed like a good idea
And I know that I should have known better
No its not the way it was meant to be
We only tried to make you play the game

Its not the way you turned away
Its only that you never stayed the same
And now I hate it when I lie
You only cried each time I tried to tell you why
And that my life was only yesterday

I never tried to drive her away
We only ever wanted you to stay
And when I touch her without pain
And when you touch it hurts the same
And it almost destroyed my life
And that was yesterdat

Madelaine

And now I'm waiting for a word
Just like I'm waiting for your words to come before
And as I came to say goodbye
I saw you through her door
And then you kissed but you already knew
Just when and how she stole my life
And all my yesterdays
