Just One Yesterday (ft. Foxes) [2013 'Save Rock and Roll']
I thought of angels Choking on their halos Get them drunk on rose water See how dirty I can get them Pulling out their fragile teeth And clip their tiny wings
Anything you say can and will be held against you So only say my name It will be held against you Anything you say can and will be held against you So only say my name
If heaven’s grief brings hell’s rain Then I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday (I know I’m bad news) For just one yesterday (I saved it all for you) Oh, I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way Still I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday (I know I’m bad news) For just one yesterday (I saved it all for you) For just one yesterday
Letting people down is my thing, baby Find yourself a new gig This town ain’t big enough for two of us I don’t have the right name Or the right looks But I have twice the heart
Anything you say can and will be held against you So only say my name It will be held against you Anything you say can and will be held against you So only say my name (name)
If heaven’s grief brings hell’s rain Then I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday (I know I’m bad news) For just one yesterday (I saved it all for you) I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way Still I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday (I know I’m bad news) For just one yesterday (I saved it all for you) For just one yesterday
If I spilled my guts The world would never look at you the same way And now I’m here to give you all my love So I can watch your face as I take it all away, away, away, ay ay ay
If heaven’s grief brings hell’s rain Then I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday (I know I’m bad news) For just one yesterday (I saved it all for you) I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way Still I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday (I know I’m bad news) For just one yesterday (I saved it all for you) For just one yesterday
