Sayin' "I love you"
Just sayin' "I love you"

Yesterday's songs
Don't stay around long
Not much anymore (yesterday's songs are gone)

Yesterday's words
Don't make themselves heard
Like they did before (yesterday's words are gone)

Baby, yesterday's blues
Maybe yesterday's news
But the truth always stays the same
And the good things will never change
Like sayin' "I love you"
Just sayin' "I love you"

Yesterday's songs
Don't seem to belong
They're here and they're gone (yesterday's songs are gone)

Yesterday's moves
Don't stay in the grooves
They keep moving on (yesterday's grooves are gone)

Maybe yesterday's rhyme
Was for yesterday's time
And the future's not ours to see
But there's some things that always will be
Like sayin' "I love you"
Sayin' "I love you"

Baby, yesterday's blues
Maybe yesterday's news
But the truth always stays the same
And the good things will never change
Like sayin' "I love you"
Sayin' "I love you"
Sayin' "I love you"
Like sayin' "I love you"
