Seems Like Only Yesterday

歌詞

Edwards I'll never forget that dreadful day When I decided to run away Little sister was playin' with a kitten on the floor Mama was rockin out on the front porch And Daddy had gone to the grocery store And Brother had left the day before Packed my clothes when no one was lookin' Went out the back door and into the bushes And down the holler and over the creek Then up the field and across the field I jumped the fence and I thumbed a ride Much too young to realize That I'd regret all it by and by. And I wish I had the love that was offered to me When I was just too young and blind to see There was a whole lot of love in that old house But I had to leave to find it out And it seems like it was only yesterday. And I wish I had the love that was offered to me When I was just too young and blind to see There was a whole lot of love in that old house But I had to leave to find it out And it seems like it was only yesterday. If I'd a-known then what I know now I'd a-stayed right on my daddy's old farm Just a young upstart I thought I was smart Tried to be a man when I was only a child But many a time it comes to my mind To pack my clothes and leave this town And jump that fence and cross that field And down the hill and over the creek An up the holler and through them bushes And in the back door when no one is lookin' And accept the love that was offered to me. And I wish I had the love that was offered to me When I was just too young and blind to see There was a whole lot of love in that old house But I had to leave to find it out And it seems like it was only yesterday And I wish I had the love I threw away.
