Where Is Yesterday

(Agnus dei qui tollis peccata mundi
miserere eis
agunus dei qui tollis peccata mundi
donna eis requiem.)
 
do you remember what you said and did a thousand years ago?
where is yesterday?
 
do you remember what you said and did a thousand weeks ago?
where is yesterday?

yesterday in crannies or in nooks you will not find
yesterday in chronicles or books you will not find
all you see of yesterday is shadows in your mind
shadows on the pavement but no bodies do you find

do you believe that snows of winters long ago return again?
where is yesterday?
a voice you knew a thousand years ago you can't remember when?
where is yesterday?

here is only waiting for a day that went before
here is only waiting for an answer at the door
here is only living without knowing why for sure
here is something gone you cannot find it anymore
