[00:00.67]Yesterday when I was young - 齐豫
[00:02.12]Lyrics by:C. Aznavour/H. Kretzmer
[00:03.42]Composed by:C. Aznavour/H. Kretzmer
[00:28.95]Yesterday when I was young
[00:34.34]The taste of life was sweet like rain upon my tongue
[00:40.82]I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
[00:47.51]The way and evening breeze would tease a candle flame
[00:53.99]The thousand dreams I dreamed
[00:57.44]The splendid things I planned
[01:00.47]I always built to last on weekend shifting sand
[01:07.77]I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
[01:14.24]And only now I see how the years have run away
[01:21.29]Yesterday when I was young
[01:27.19]There were so many songs that waited to be sung
[01:33.28]So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
[01:39.32]And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
[01:45.20]I ran so fast in time and youth at last ran out
[01:50.85]I never stopped to think what life was all about
[01:56.46]And every conversation that I can recall
[02:02.01]Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all
[02:08.36]Yesterday the moon was blue
[02:14.41]And every crazy day brought something new to do
[02:20.29]And I used my magic age as if it were a wand
[02:26.46]And never saw all the waste and emptiness beyond
[02:31.96]The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
[02:37.93]And every flame I lit so quickly quickly died
[02:43.73]The friend I made all seem somehow to drift away
[02:49.44]And only I'm left on stage to end the play
[02:55.71]Yesterday when I was young
[03:01.71]There were so many songs that waited to be sung
[03:07.33]So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
[03:12.93]And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
[03:18.76]I ran so fast in time and youth at last ran out
[03:24.41]I never stopped to think what life was all about
[03:29.91]And every conversation that I can now recall
[03:35.47]Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all
[03:41.63]There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
[03:47.92]'Cause I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
[03:54.40]And the time has come for me
[03:57.53]To pay for yesterday when I was young
