Charles Aznavour - Yesterday When I Was Young - Sözleri

Yesterday when I was young 

The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue 

I teased at life as if it were a foolish game 

The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame 

The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned 

I always built, alas, on weak and shifting sand 

I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day 

And only now I see how the years ran away 

Yesterday when I was young 

So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung 

So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me 

And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see 

I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out 

I never stopped to think what life was all about 

And every conversation I can now recall 

Concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all 

Yesterday the moon was blue 

And every crazy day brought something new to do 

I used my magic age as if it were a wand 

And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond 

The game of love I played with arrogance and pride 

And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died 

The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away 

And only I am left on stage to end the play 

There are so many songs in me that won't be sung 

I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue 

The time has come for me to pay for yesterday when I was young
