david j - the you of yesteryear lyrics

Loading...

the mirror holds a stranger
your true self sn+tched by hands
belonging to hijackers
who have flown to foreign lands

now you’re walking
in those big girl’s shoes
down a catwalk that is dark
looking for an exit
and a well+lit place to park

and you’ve been trying to squeeze
into the you of yesteryear
in an effort to appease
some faded cavalier

now you’re selling all your old clothes
that no longer fit
yeah, time is ticking over
and the candles have been lit

so, you’re giving all your glad+rags
to the ann vets
tossing out your teddies
and p+wning amulets
you’re through with trying to squeeze
into the you of yesteryear
in an effort to appease
some faded cavalier
trying to squeeze
into the you of yesteryear
trying to please that faded cavalier

well, the loosest slots in reno
couldn’t bring that figure home
so, you’re throwing out a rose wreath
into the rolling foam
and all those casanovas
they have vaporized like steam
they rode into the sunset
hunting down another dream

now it’s done to glowing embers
where once was raging fire
but those little glowing embers
can still kindle desire

so, there’s no need to squeeze
into the you of yesteryear
the new you will do
now is that clear?
you’re still a beauty
so wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
yeah, wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear

wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
wipe away that tear
