Yesterday Has Gone

The Seasons do come and the Seasons do go And eventually time becomes everyone's foe The boy of the fifties is showing time's decay One might say he has known of a far better day The memories are all we retain of the past And the clocks on our lives ever keep ticking fast We only can learn from the yesterday And live in the now as some are known to say Like the food that we eat on us a use by date With other life forms we share a common fate For our lessons in life always some price to pay We learn as we live it does seem this way We live in the now and time does tick on And tomorrow will dawn and yesterday has gone.
