Since you left me, I never really tried

To put my life to where it should belong

And I've always let the past gone by

I'm realizing that it could be wrong



Refrain:

But now I fin'lly knew

I had to let it go

To make way for a brighter tomorrow



Chorus:

So now I'm leavin' yesterday behind

And fin'lly I've made up my mind

So let the mem'ries stay away

And think about today

I'm leavin' yesterday behind

'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more

The way I did before



Since I know that I never will forget

The memories that made my yesterday

I will try not to let it interfere

The choices I will make along the way



Refrain:

'Cause I'm not livin' in a world of fantasy

I'm here now in the world of reality



Chorus:

So now I'm leavin' yesterday behind

And fin'lly I've made up my mind

So let the mem'ries stay away

And think about today

I'm leavin' yesterday behind

'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more

The way I did before



So now I'm leavin' yesterday behind

And fin'lly I've made up my mind

So let the mem'ries stay away

And think about today

I'm leavin' yesterday behind

'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more

Just the way I did before
