Yesterday.
All our troubles seemed so far away.
Now it looks as though they’re here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Suddenly, we’re not half of what we ought to be
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly

Why he had to go I don't know he wouldn't stay
They did something wrong,
now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, grift and corruption were our aims to slay
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday

My sister has a big birthday coming up. We were thinking of a family trip to Italy. We were talking the other day and the consensus was, "maybe wait and see what the November election brings. I don't want to be embarrassed to be an American overseas. Maybe wait till the next Democrat fixes this mess before we do Italy."
