YESTERDAY AIN'T COMING BACK (Pete Ham)
[commercial version from The Iveys' "Maybe Tomorrow" LP]

Yesterday ain't coming back

So you had better plan tomorrow

A plan to rid you of all sorrow

Yesterday ain't coming back


You've lost the only love you had

So there's no use in cryin' out your heart

Get on your feet, it's time to make a start

Yesterday ain't coming back


CHORUS:

No, no, too late to cry

No, no, too late to sigh

See another day (see another day)

No, no, too late to cry

No, no, too late to sigh

Tomorrow's on its way

See another day


What's done is done, the time's too late

And cryin' isn't going to change things

You'll have to start to rearrange things

Yesterday ain't coming back


repeat CHORUS


And now before my story ends

Just think of people who are worse than you

And start to do the things they cannot do

Yesterday ain't coming

Yesterday ain't coming

Yesterday ain't coming back.
