Yesterday When I Was Young -许冠杰（Hui ） 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 Way the evening breeze May tease a candle flame The thousand dreams I dreamed The splendid things I planned I always built you last 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 song So many word pleasures Lay in store for me And so much pain my Dazzled eyes refused to see I ran so fist 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 Yesterday The moon was blue And every crazy day Brought something new to do I used my magic age As if it were a want And never saw the waste And emptiness beyond The game of love I played The arrogance and pride And every flame I lit Too quickly quickly died My friends I made all seemed Somehow the drift away And only I am left On stage to end the play 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
