Here I amLooking through that same window againGot me hurting to see youAttack me, jealousyAlways wondering if I've been trueWhy can't I be pretty for youYou want too much (of me)(Why can't I shine)Why can't I shine(How could you do me that way)How could you do me(The girl from yesterday)Today, I'm gone away (Away, away, away, away)AwayYou push me away(Wooo wo Yesterday.....)(Wooo wo Yesterday.....)If somebody love meThe way that I have loved youI would be secureBut you have friends that think they know howThis relationship should goForces from the outsideDestroying usWhy can't I be a womanWhy can't you trust(You want too much of me)(Why can't I shine)Why can't I be real(How could you do me that way)I would change you for the world(The girl from yesterday)Today, I'm gone away (Away, away, away, away)You push me awaySo far awayThe girl from yesterday(Wooo wo Yesterday.....)(Wooo wo Yesterday.....)(Yesterday)(Yesterday)How could you treat me this wayThe girl from yesterdayYou did wear and tears awayUhhh.....How could you do itYou were my loverYou were my friendOoh, oh...........And you pushin' mePushin' me away, boyAnd I don't understandI loved youTrusted youI needed you, oh......
