(It Was) Only Yesterday

Only yesterday



Carpenters



After long enough of being alone

Everyone must face their share of loneliness

In my own time nobody knew

The pain I was goin' thru

And waitin' was all my heart could do



Hope was all I had until you came

Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me

You were the dawn breaking the night

The promise of morning light

Filling the world sur-rounding me




When I hold you, baby baby, feels like maybe


Things will be all right


Baby, baby, your love's made me free as a song


Singin' forever,





only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely


You showed me the way to leave the past and all it's tears behind me


Tomorrow may be even brighter than today


Since I threw sadness away


Only yesterday



I have found my home here in your arms

Nowhere else on e
