It was just yesterdayWhen the quiet river flew
Through the tortuous woods
Of complex entangled twines
Through edges sharp and rough
Through arduous twists and turns
Struggling along it made the way
It was just yesterday........
It was just yesterdayWhen that last winter leaf
Battled the strong northern winds
Fluttered in the harsh unkind gusts
Braved the icy rains alone
Held on to the edge of its weary branch
Refused the storm to have its say
It was just yesterday......
It was just yesterday
When the anchors broke
The boat went off to the night beyondHurt by waves, it tossed along
To hit aground in land unknown
To live a life complete anew
Rejoicing to be a castaway
It was just yesterday........
It was just yesterday
When the poor piggy bank
Was full up to the brim
With earnings saved of half a life
Of heart and soul worth all the gold
The precious saving of new and old
Was counted, cherished and given away
It was just yesterday.....
