Yesterday's Gone Lyrics

You left me standing here staring at the view
Did you think that I was coming after you
I might have been that dumb a hundred times before
You can take your stinking at attitude and shove it out the door
Shove it out the door

Chorus
I¹m tired of your lying and fooling around
You¹ve pushed me too far I¹m standing my ground
I¹ve got news for you bary yesterday¹s gone
Yesterday¹s gone

I can¹t belive that you would put me down this way
There¹s not a word of truth in anything you say
I gave you everything and you threw it in my face
You¹re running on your own now baby see who wins the race
See who wins the race

Chorus
Guitar solo

I saw you yesterday out with someone new
You¹ve got him on your hook dancing to your tune
Do you think of me when he¹s in your bed
If you think I¹m coming back to you you¹re off your pretty head
Off your pretty head

Chorus repeat

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Contrasting the track before it, this song expresses one's frustration and determination to move on from a toxic relationship. It revolves around letting go of the past, standing up for oneself, and moving forward from a hurtful situation. The name and chorus highlight the final decision to break free from the lies and deception of the past, emphasizing that "yesterday's gone" and it's time to move forward. This was all a result of witnessing their ex-partner with someone new, leading to a realization that they no longer wish to be a part of the toxic cycle.
