Can i have my ball back? Oh, oh where did everybody go? Was it something i said i've done i don't remember And who are these strangers with familiar faces Who claim they know me? I blame the lizard in my brain Is this sane? Yesterday we were young and beautiful Yesterday was so very far away Tell me is this what it feels like Here in twilight Tell me is this what it feels like Blind my minds eye Oooh, ooh what a silly thing to do Caught in deep conversation with my apparition A ghost of you Yesterday we were young and beautiful Yesterday was so very far away Chorus + Walking through the walls of the dolls house Please can i have my ball back Playing hopscotch with my best friends in the squares that we drew On the dirty tarmac Messing with the bug caught in the web at the teaparty in the backyard Yesterday was a redder shade of grey Theres a place where the innocents would play and laugh and sing Yesterday i was young and beautiful
