Yesterday

Lyrics

I thought I saw you yesterday but I didn't stop
 'Cause you was walkin' the opposite way
 I guess I coulda shouted out your name
 But even if it was you, I don't know what I would say
 We could sit and reminisce about the old school
 Maybe share a cigarette 'cause we're both fools
 Chop it up and compare perspectives
 Life, love, stress, and setbacks, yes
 You could tell me how hard you had it
 And you can show me all the scars to back it
 And we can analyze each complaint
 Break it down and explain these mistakes I make
 I like to tangle up the strings of the puppetry
 But you knew me back when I was a younger me
 You've seen Sean in all types of light
 And I've been meanin' to ask you if I'm doin' alright
 Yesterday, was that you? Looked just like you
 Strange things my imagination might do
 Take a breath, reflect on what we've been through
 Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
 Yesterday was that you? Looked just like you
 Strange things my imagination might do
 Take a breath, reflect on what we've been through
 Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
 I'm shook, I know, I pushed when I shoulda pulled
 Took it all back if I could, I put that on my soul
 And I would make a top-notch good listener
 And keep the block off a little time to give it here
 Since we went our separate paths
 I've hit a couple of snags that remind me of the past
 I can't front, I'm having a blast
 But damned if I ain't afraid of how long it's gonna last
 Sittin' here, wishin' we could kick it
 Givin' me your opinions, I do miss the criticisms
 I didn't mean to be distant, make a visit
 I wait up and keep the coffee brewin' in the kitchen
 But who am I jokin' with?
 There's no way that you and I will ever get to re-open it
 It doesn't matter, this is more than love
 And maybe if I'm lucky, get to see you out the corner of
 Yesterday was that you? Looked just like you
 Strange things my imagination might do
 Take a breath, reflect on what we've been through
 Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
 Yesterday was that you? Looked just like you
 Strange things my imagination might do
 Take a breath, reflect on what we've been through
 Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
 And when you left, I didn't see it coming
 I guess I slept, it ain't like you was runnin'
 You crept out the front door slow
 And I was so self absorbed, I didn't even know
 And by the time I looked up, it was booked up
 Put it all behind you, the bad and the good stuff
 A whole house full of dreams and steps
 I think you'd be impressed with the pieces I kept
 You disappeared but the history is still here
 That's why I try not to cry over spilled beer
 I can't even get mad that you gone
 Leavin' me was probably the best thing you ever taught me
 I'm sorry
 It's official
 I was a fist-full
 I didn't keep it simple
 Chip on the shoulder, anger in my veins
 Had so much hatred, now it brings me shame
 Never thought about the world without you
 And I promise that I'll never say another bad word about you
 I thought I saw you yesterday
 But I know it wasn't you 'cause you passed away, Dad
 Looked just like you
 Strange things my imagination might do
 Take a breath, reflect on what we've been through
 Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?
