Don't say that was yesterday.
Don't cry the changes.
Just say what you've been always wanting to tell.
Cause she's coming back to you.
Even if we live long like a turtle, it's only a hundred years, babe.
So she's coming back to be your 'marvel of Peru',
but you've got to know she's not a little girl anymore.
Maybe it's to her for the long long journey
that was seemed like endless, but now it's ended.
You can see her singing on the hill again.
She can see you laughing like the full moon again.
Don't say that was yesterday.
Don't cry for the changes.
Just say what you've been always wanting to tell.
Cause she's coming back to you.
(Interlude)
Even if you live long like a crane, it's only a hundred years, babe.
So she took the morning train to be your sunagain.
But you've got to know she's not a little girl anymore.
Don't say that was yesterday.
Don't cry the changes.
Just do what you've been always wanting to do.
Cause she's coming back to you.
Don't say that was yesterday.
Sometimes life is funny and painful.
She always said, I'm so lucky that I've got a place to go back, anyway.
The sun is shining above you.
You'd better go by now.
