Yesterday was kind
Of like the Fourth Of July
The way your face lit up
The entire sky
I had to look away
Because it hurt my eyes
The way you hit me
Was a big surprise
Yesterday
I really didn't know
What to say
I wasn't making
Any sense but it felt ok
I asked you
If it was my birthday
This kind of thing
Don't happen everyday
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Didn't think an angel
Would get in my way
Yesterday
I felt just like a child
A little curious
A little wild
Live in the moment
And never go out of style
You know
It's really been a while
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Didn't think an angel
Would get in my way
Excuse me
Won't you step aside
I ain't got no room
For you in my life
I don't got the patience
To love again
I don't got the guts
To keep you as a friend
Be an angel
And fly away
I hope you reach
Some heavenly place
If you come back
When you're all done
Bring me some raindrops
From the sun
Today I feel
Like I'm doing time
Didn't know it could be
Just like a crime
Been a while
Since I let you go
But time
Don't let regrets go
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Didn't think an angel
Would get in my way
So I gotta welcome angels
