Yesterday's Troubles

Yesterday all my Troubles
were Here to stay.
Troubles wouldn't go Away.
everyday was a Trouble's Day.
all the skys were Trouble's gray.
Trouble's just wouldn't go Away.

Yesterday there weren't no blue sky.
Yesterday didn't know Why
Trouble's wouldn't pass me by.
Yesterday i couldn't lie,
Trouble's mad me want to Die.
all i could do was sit & Sigh.
couldn't tell Trouble's good-bye.

then one day, what can i say,
Yesterday's Trouble's up & went away.
guess i'd figured Trouble's were here to stay.
kinda' like the dock sittin' by the bay.
figured Trouble's were here come what may.
figured everday was gonna' be a Trouble's Day.

Today's trouble's ain't so bad.
lot bettern' what i had.
lot bettern' bein' Yesterday's Sad.

Today's skys are sunny & blue.
least Today i know what to do
'bout Yesterday's lovin' you.
figured out what's True.
gotta' figure out How to love ME too.

very well said, Steve. "Yesterday's Troubles" speak for a lot of folks, I think. It certainly "sings well" about my experience most days.
