Story Behind the Song
I knew a woman... actually several over the years... who were miserable in their marriages and yet they were trapped, or felt trapped. That is what Yesterday's Girl is all about, and leaving that though process behind.
Lyrics
Yesterday's Girl
She said I need someone to hold me so I can forget my pain
Oh, the days and nights of bitterness are showing signs of strain
Her heart comes crashing down so fast its right before her eyes,
she has a longing but she doesn't realize
That was Yesterday Girl, yesterday girl
yea, that was yesterday girl, yesterday girl
She said the precious times turned angry and they will not go away
Yea, but something deep inside her says she knows its not that way
Her soul is deep and warm although her love is not the same;
yea, years of being prisoner by someone else's name
Her world comes crashing down so fast its right before her eyes
she has a conscience but she doesn't realize
That was yesterday's girl, yesterday's girl
Yesterday's Girl
