"Only Yesterday" lyrics

"Only Yesterday"

Now you're looking up
But that's a very lonely decade in the rear view
And it feels like only yesterday

Still trying to shake it off
But memories have a way of sticking with
They ache like only yesterday

You try I know
But you haven't found connection to hold on to
And it haunts you

So many places where you don't belong
Can't fight this feeling like you're almost home
It won't be long

You found a way to put it now
And your grief is not a burden, it's energy
That burns like only yesterday
You got around to finding out
And you feel it more than ever
She's the one for you
And she likes you too

So many places where you don't belong
Can't fight this feeling like you're almost home
It won't be long

A lighthouse and a satellite
Are making plans
Holding hands
Spinning wheels
I finally feel
Some sunlight on my face
