Lyrics: Wynton Marsalis. Standard Time 2: Intimacy Calling. Yesterdays.

Yesterdays, yesterdays
Days are new as happy sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days, golden days
Days of mad romance and love

Them gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Join us be in flame and live
Then sooth was mine

Sad and mired
Glad and mired
For today I'm dreamin' of
Yesterdays

Yesterdays, yesterdays
Days are new as happy sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days, golden days
Days of mad romance and love

Them gay youth was mine
Them truth was mine
Free and flaming life
Sooth was mine

Sad and mired
Glad and mired
For today I'm dreamin' of
Yesterdays
