Donna Fargo – That Was Yesterday Lyrics

You know, Ive always believed
That when you feel somethin
Especially somethin good for someone
You shouldnt keep it from them
You should let him know
But I also believe that
If you think its love
Theres really no need to bring it up
If you know theres no chance for it to grow
But it seems like
Im always coming up with contradictions
Because now I find that
What I believe and what I feel
Are two very different things
And those feelings Ive kept all to myself
Are gonna come out now
Even though theyve changed
So you see
I guess I was right in one way
That I never told you this
And I dont really know why Im telling you now
But Id just kinda like you to know that
There couldnt be a you and me
I mightve changed my life for you
And you mightve changed for me
If there werent so many ifs and buts
And if you had wanted it to be
But because of the way I am
And the way you are
We never took the chance, did we?
Call it respect, because were not free
Call it fear of rejection because of our pride
Or call it just plain old common sense
That it would be just too risky
And too sticky a situation
Because we wouldnt know exactly where we were going
And wed be afraid to take the ride
Call it whatever, but I wanted you to know that
I like you very much
And youre the kind of person I could love
Youre honest, sincere, compassionate, not afraid
To be too gentle and not afraid to be too strong and
You got that certain kind of something
People are always looking for and rarely find and
Never seem to get enough of and somehow
It doesnt seem wrong to tell you that
No, we never kissed and never touched each other
But our hearts have and our souls have and
If we gaved them half the chance
Look out, for Ill bet they could start a fire
That nobody in the whole world could put out
But that was yesterday, wasnt it?
And things are so different now
See I was right not to ever tell you
Because I guess I always knew
It would of never really had a chance to grow
And though Ill use my better judgement again
And never mail this letter
I still kinda wanted you to know
