Can you still remember
How it seemed that we could live forever in a lovers dream?
And falling was the best part but now you know the things you cling to
Your heart can start to grow.
You, you`re walking away.
I`ve been there now I know what to say... I`m the king of yesterday.
A silly little love song for myself.
It`s all I ever do you know I shine the shell.
A pretty little picture, the face of you.
You were my setting sun and now you`re every view.
You, you`re walking away
I`ve been there now I know what to say...
I`m the king of yesterday.
Why don`t, why don`t, why don`t you stay?
Why don`t you stay? Why don`t you stay? Why don`t you stay?
Take a little time, throw it on the line.
Let me believe that you believe in me.
Baby turn around, look at what I found.
You are the one that I want.
Take a little time, throw it on the line.
Let me believe that you believe in me.
Baby turn around, look at what I found.
You were the one that I wanted.
And someday I`ll be over on my own.
Believing all the legends of the loves I`ve known
And seeing you in summer the way we were when you were seventeen
You know I much preferred you walking away.
I`ve been here, now I know what to say
I`m the King of Yesterday.
Why don`t, why don`t, why don`t you stay?
Why don`t you stay? Why don`t you stay with me? Stay.
Take a little time, throw it on the line.
Let me believe that you believe in me.
Baby turn around, look at what I found.
You are the one that I want.
Take a little time, throw it on the line.
Let me believe that you believe in me.
Baby turn around, look at what I found.
You were the one that I wanted.
You were the one that I wanted.
King of yesterday.
King of yesterday.
