Yesterday's Gone Lyrics

It's your oldest trick and your cheapest one
Turn the world to blank and the game is done
I hope and I pray that the rainbow comes
You'll change your mind don't shoot the gun

You can sail on seven seas
Lend your heart out to who you please
Where ever you travel what ever you see
don't forget the love you got from me

Goodnight moon goodbye sun
What goes with you is all my love
I hope your best is yet to come
let's close the book what's done is done
'cos yesterday's gone

There you go now you're off your leash
Go rid your heart of its great disease
Where ever you travel what ever you see
don't forget the love you got from me

Goodnight moon goodbye sun
What goes with you is all my love
I hope your best is yet to come
Let's close the book what's done is done
'cos yesterday's gone
yesterday's Gone
yesterday's Gone
yesterday's Gone
yesterday's Gone

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.

A song of letting one go, not with hate but with a hope of happiness for them.
