Yesterday When I Was Young-Julio Iglesias

[00:11.50]yesterday when i was young [00:15.98]the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue. [00:21.92]i teased at life as if it were a foolish game, [00:27.16]the way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame. [00:32.27]the thousand dreams i dreamed, the splendid things i planned [00:36.44]i always built alas on weak and shifting sand. [00:43.06]i lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day [00:48.47]and only now i see how the years ran away. [00:54.05]yesterday when i was young [00:59.10]so many drinking songs were waiting to be sung, [01:04.72]so many wayward pleasures lay in store for me [01:10.38]and so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see. [01:15.91]i ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out, [01:20.66]i never stopped to think what life was all about [01:24.55]and every conversation i can now recall [01:31.79]concerned itself with me and nothing else at all. [01:46.33] [02:02.22]yesterday the moon was blue [02:07.48]and every crazy day brought something new to do. [02:12.85]i used my magic age as if itwere a wand [02:17.72]and never saw the waste and emptiness beyond. [02:23.25]the game of love i played with arrogance and pride [02:28.69]and every flame i lit too quickly quickly died. [02:34.06]the friedns i made all seemed somehow to drift away [02:39.54]and only i am left on stage to end the play. [02:48.40] [02:49.16]yesterday when i was young.
