Yester Love (1968) Lyrics

Smokey Robinson & The Miracles Yester Love (1968)

Yesterday we made future plans, she loved me I could tell
Can today be that tomorrow that we planned so well?
Yester baby, I'll never forget her
Though tomorrow might bring me one better

Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of all my yester love
Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of all my yester love

Yesterday I felt a tender kiss upon my face
Now the day is gone and there's a tear drop in its place
Oh, yester kisses that I used to treasure
Now you're given some other lips pleasure

Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of my yester love
Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of my yester love

Yester is, the prefix, that we fix, to things that have gone by
Forever they say, yeah, even though my yester love
Has slipped through my fingers
I find it still lingers in my heart today

Yesterday I thought I had a love to call my own
No one could have told me that today I'd be alone
Yes the sweetness today has gone sour
Seeming further away with each hour

Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of all my yester love
Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of my yester love
Today I'll go on my way dreamin' of my yester love
