Dusty Springfield Dusty In London Yesterday When I Was Young (charles aznavour / herbert kretzmer) Spoken : somehow, it seems the love i knew was always the most destructive kind Yesterday when i was young The taste of life was sweet As rain upon my tongue I teased at life as if it were a foolish game The way the evening breeze May tease the candle flame The thousand dreams i dreamed The splendid things i planned I always built to last on weak and shifting sand I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day And only now i see how the time ran away Yesterday when i was young So many lovely songs were waiting to be sung So many wild pleasures lay in store for me And so much pain my eyes refused to see I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out I never stopped to think what life was all about And every conversation that i can now recall Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all The game of love i played with arrogance and pride And every flame i lit too quickly, quickly died The friends i made all somehow seemed to slip away And only now i'm left alone to end the play, yeah Oh, yesterday when i was young So many, many songs were waiting to be sung So many wild pleasures lay in store for me And so much pain my eyes refused to see There are so many songs in me that won't be sung I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue The time has come for me to pay for yesterday When i was young |
