Can't Say Good Bye to Yesterday – Carla White

I stare at the stars and the sky up above
And think what am I made of
Am I full of sorrow, am I hurt and pained
Or am I filled with love
I walk by myself on the streets below
And ask every child I know
Do you think tomorrow will bring sun or rain
Which one of these will show

I can't say good-bye to yesterday, my friend
I keep holding on 'til the end
Out of the darkness there is no other way
Than the light leading to yesterday

※
It's there that I'll find
In a peace not warm
And dreams that I let slip away
I'll find the joyfulness I'm looking for
Way back in yesterday

Why can't each of us in the world ever see
The best things in life are free
Little sounds of laughter, a warm hug, a smile
A kiss from you to me

I fall to my knees
I cry and I cry
Love, do not pass me by
Happy ever after, please stay for a while
Make time refuse to fly

I can't say good-bye to yesterday, my friend
'Cause I know how good it has been
Facing forever, here I stand, come what may
In the old in the new yesterday
