Wake, reaching for yesterday
Up, washing the sleep away
My mind, thoughts of the games you play
All the time
I, roll up a cigarette
Sit down, trying hard to forget
Your face, when you turned and left me
Again

It's not a game seeing your face on the wall
When it's only in a frame
It's not the same sleeping without you at night
Not knowing if I will again
Magic mirrors shine, memories of yesterday
When you wouldn't go and you couldn't stay
Deceitfully blind
To you wanting your way
Where will you go? Where will you stay? Where will you stay?
You wouldn't say, you wouldn't say

You've gone away
Can't help feeling sad but then I'm glad you'll realize your heartaches today
I see your eyes
Yes the eyes that used to shine with secret tears you know you always used to cry
I'll wait for tomorrow
Yes I'll wait for tomorrow
Haven't I told you?
Just want to hold you
You know that yesterday
You took my smallest part so carelessly away
Have all your memories gone suddenly to sleep?
Your golden head, the empty bed, the empty bed
And now there is another day
But where are you? What can I do?

You once said ours is terrestrial love
Such a feeling left along with your case
It's such a fight cause every window I pass
Keeps reflecting visions of your face

Like a spider's web weaving me 'round and 'round again
Will it let go? Can I clear my head?
There's a thousand things, not only the empty bed
Why did you go? Was it something I said?
Let me clear my head, was I misled?
I wish I was dead

You've gone away
Can't help feeling sad but then I'm glad you'll realize your heartaches today
I see your eyes
Yes the eyes that used to shine with secret tears you know you always used to cry
I'll wait for tomorrow
Yes I'll wait for tomorrow
Haven't I told you?
Just want to hold you
You know that yesterday
You took my smallest part so carelessly away
Have all your memories gone suddenly to sleep?
Your golden head, the empty bed, the empty bed
And now that you have gone away
But where are you? What can I do?

My cigarette's gone out
It's late, there's no one about
Guess I'll try and put you right out
Of my mind
