You told her lies as her starry eyes Looked up in admiration You painted scenes and lovely dreams With all your temptation You spoke of things like wedding rings And promised her the world For no cause at all you let her fall And now she's yesterday's girl You think it's smart to lure the heart Of a girl whose lips you kissed Is it just a game to add her name To your broken-hearted list? You've loved some long You've loved some wrong You promised each the world Each game to be just a memory And another yesterday's girl Don't you sometimes feel That love is real, the greatest thing in life? Not one romance you gave the chance To be your cherished wife You cheat and lie you make them cry And promise each the world And one by one They each become another yesterday's girl When autumn falls and you recall The things that might have been Then you'll pause and see you caused The greed that's deep within When you're old and love grows cold I'll bet you'd give the world To just relive to take and give The love of a yesterday's girl
