Yesterday I held you
For the first time.
The first time I’ve held anyone
In such a long, long time.
I loved you until the morning
Brought the sunshine.
Then I fell asleep
With you here by my side.
Yesterday I never thought
I’d find someone like you
Who’d help me try to
Fall in love again.
Now I’m feeling things inside
Which I’ve missed for so long
And darling it is all
Because of you.
I hope that I can hold you
Once again tonight.
The same way that
I held you yesterday.
I know I’ll find those feelings
In your arms again,
And I’ll miss you when
Tomorrow morning comes.
