Yesterday When I Was Young (昨日当我还年轻) - Dusty Springfield 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 a candle flame; The thousand dreams I dreamed The splendid things I planned I always built alas On weak and shifting sand; I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day And only now I see how the years ran away Yesterday when I was young So many happy songs were waiting to be sung So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me And so much pain my dazzled 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 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 seemed somehow to drift away And only I am left on stage to end the play Yesterday when I was young So many happy songs were waiting to be sung So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me And so much pain my dazzled 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编辑于2021/04/08更新
