[ti:] [ar:] [al:] [by:时间戳工具V2.0_20200810] [offset:0] [00:13.92]Yesterday when I was young [00:19.05]The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue [00:25.71]I teased at life as if it were a foolish game [00:31.50]The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame [00:37.86]The thousand dreams I dreamed the splendid things I planned [00:44.40]I always built alas on weak and shifting sand [00:50.64]I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day [00:57.63]And only now I see how the years ran away [01:04.37]Yesterday when I was young [01:09.42]So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung [01:15.63]So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me [01:21.30]And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see [01:27.66]I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out [01:34.50]I never stopped to think what life was all about [01:40.50]And every conversation I can now recall [01:47.04]Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all [01:55.26]Yesterday the moon was blue [02:00.54]And every crazy day brought something new to do [02:06.84]I used my magic age as if it were a wand [02:13.08]And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond [02:18.99]The game of love I played with arrogance and pride [02:25.32]And every flame I lit too quickly quickly died [02:31.68]The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away [02:38.07]And only I am left on stage to end the play [02:43.71]There are so many songs in me that won't be sung [02:50.55]I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue [02:56.88]The time has come for me to pay for [03:01.20]Yesterday when I was young
