Return To Yesterday - The Lilac Time

Return To Yesterday LRC歌词

[00:06.48]It was the day before the day before yesterday

[00:11.04]When we thought everything would now go our way

[00:16.47]We inherited a fortune of innocence

[00:21.60]And they took it all away

[00:25.67]We travel on the last bus from sanity

[00:30.66]Through province town to cities of obscurity

[00:35.66]And somewhere down the road it occurs to me

[00:41.68]That I might have missed my stop

[00:45.56]But I will not return to yesterday

[00:51.45]Or smooth out the human clay

[00:56.72]We'll face this new England like we always have

[01:01.31]In a fury of denial

[01:03.62]We'll go out dancing on the tiles

[01:06.18]Help me down, but don't take me back

[01:14.87]I heard a lover calling to Saint Anthony

[01:20.05]Sadly treating love like her property

[01:25.37]Only battles can be lost and so it seems we do

[01:29.12]But I'm hoping for a change

[01:34.49]I left you at the bus stop in working town

[01:38.93]Now the service has been cut re-named slumber down

[01:43.55]I can see you on the bars of your brother's bicycle

[01:48.50]Now I hope you're not alone

[01:53.18]But I will not return to yesterday

[01:59.62]Or smooth out the human clay

[02:04.18]We'll face this new England like we always have

[02:10.93]In a fury of denial

[02:12.12]We'll go out dancing on the tiles

[02:14.51]Help me down, but don't take me back

[02:22.83]And all the politician creeps

[02:25.01]I know they want them back

[02:27.39]And the couturier weeps

[02:29.27]She knows they won't come back

[02:32.38]And the lovers who seldom speak

[02:34.57]I know they want them back

[02:37.33]And me falling back into your half term kisses

[02:40.32]No I will not

[02:43.64]Return to yesterday

[02:48.20]Or smooth out the human clay

[02:53.26]We'll face this new England like we always have

[02:58.89]In a fury of denial

[03:01.14]We'll go out dancing on the tiles

[03:03.51]Help me down, but don't take me back

[03:08.02]Return to yesterday

[03:13.15]Or smooth out the human clay

[03:17.97]We'll face this new England like we always have

[03:23.03]In a fury of denial

[03:25.41]We'll go out dancing on the tiles

[03:28.35]Help me down, but don't take me back

[03:32.40]Return to yesterday

[03:36.90]Or smooth out the human clay
