Goodbye Yesterday

My life is so confusing
So full of ups and downs
One day I am in a depression
And feeling so let down

The next day I am happy
My smile is across my face
One day I want to run and hide
Other days I am a twist of fate

Sometimes I live down in the dumps
Other times I am up in the clouds
Sometimes I am disappointed
Then other times I feel so proud

Chalk it up to memories
Ones that you don\'t need
Discard the days of your past
And quit living in a memory

Yesterday is over
Realize it is long gone
The love you had back then
Is what has made your future strong

Things look so much brighter
When I quit living in the past
And I reach out for my future
Instead of a love that could never last

The grass is always greener
In a pasture you once fertilized
The weeds have now grown over
From a love struck suicide

Do not take steps back wards
For you will never find the light
Walk away from old memories
And love what you have tonight

Realize that past flames
Sizzled out for a reason
Look forward to each new day
And the changing of the seaons

Be happy for who you are
And love the one you are with
Get over old memories
Of a love you can\'t forget

If you keep on living
With dreams of yesterday
You will never love yourself
Or what you have become today

Realize the past was a planting
Of a little seed
And now your future is blossoming
And you are overcoming the weeds

You have mastered the garden
The future is looking bright
Say goodbye to yesterday
And strap yourself in for a new flight

Yesterday is over
Today you will begin
To let go of all the darkness
And let the new sunlight shine in
