Born Yesterday by Summerteeth Lyrics
I was born just yesterday
My mother rose from her bedside to take me away
I felt the daylight
Through the hospital doors for the very first time
I took my first steps yesterday
Through the garden with my father where we used to play
So soft and sweet
Nothing ever felt better than the flowers underneath my feet
I wasn't ready at all
I fell in love just yesterday
In the glow of her tail lights fading away
Will she know my name?
And do you think that there's a way she'll ever feel the same?
I broke my own heart yesterday
Through my red eyes, searching for a reason to stay
I won't forget her face
And though the time isn't right, you know the world is not a perfect place
I wasn't ready at all
Now it's so damn cold and I hate it
It never used to be like this every year
Now we're growing old and I hate it
It never used to be like this every year
I wasn't ready at all
My mother rose from her bedside to take me away
I felt the daylight
Through the hospital doors for the very first time
I took my first steps yesterday
Through the garden with my father where we used to play
So soft and sweet
Nothing ever felt better than the flowers underneath my feet
I wasn't ready at all
I fell in love just yesterday
In the glow of her tail lights fading away
Will she know my name?
And do you think that there's a way she'll ever feel the same?
I broke my own heart yesterday
Through my red eyes, searching for a reason to stay
I won't forget her face
And though the time isn't right, you know the world is not a perfect place
I wasn't ready at all
Now it's so damn cold and I hate it
It never used to be like this every year
Now we're growing old and I hate it
It never used to be like this every year
I wasn't ready at all
