You cannot run, you cannot hide or fly away Escape from yesterday, try to hide when you see me Cannot run from the fury When I repent that I'm the cover of the magazine And even thought I know it's all what I wanted I wish to be beheaded by a guillotine

And girl I miss the way it used to be The way it used to be And colors turn to grey I miss yesterday And the way it used to be And I can't turn back time Even if I tried I miss you tonight We were young

Under the stars on Brighton Beach Seems like only yesterday I remember when you were only seventeen You were the finest girl that my eyes had ever seen I guess you found it hard to simply just ignore This scruffy beat up working class teenage troubadour

I can't remember what I did tonight Or even yesterday Like, dude, where's my car? Excuse me, what's my name? Someone gave me these clothes I can't remember who My mind's a total blank Forget about you Baby, I think I've lost my mind
