yesterday when i was young 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 g ame, the way the evening breeze may tease a candle fl ame. 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 the day and only now i see how the years ran away.
yesterday when i was young so many drinking 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.
yesterday the moon was blue and every crazy day brought something new to do. i used my magic age as if itwere a wand and never saw the waste and emptiness beyond. the g ame of love i played with arrogance and pride and every flame i lit too quickly quickly died. the friedns i made all seemed somehow to 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.
