yesterday when i was young

• roy clark şarkısı. üzücü tim'i üzen tarafı ise, once in a summer filminin sonunda çalmasıdır. sözleri tam olarak şu şekil arzı endam ediyor;
  
  seems the love i've known always been
  the most destructive kind
  yes, that's why now i feel so old
  before my time
  
  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 fl ame.
  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 the 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 g ame of love i played with arrogance and pride
  and every flame i lit too quickly quickly died.
  the friedns 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.
