I watched the planes come in
On the early morning flights
But I could not stand
To see them land
Without you
Now I'm thumbing through my forty-fives
On another endless night
And the same old lines
Going back in time
Tell me this is nothing new
Well, I feel like Buddy Holly
'Cause it's Raining in My Heart
All the sad songs
Take me back to you
Now that we are apart
Now I know how
Paul McCartney felt
When he got up to say:
I wish it was Yesterday
So I sit here playing Solitaire
It's a game I know so well
Ever since that day
You called to say:
It's over
Now I've made my reservation
At the Heartbreak Hotel
While I'm living without you
I'm thinking about you
Like Only the Lonely do
Well, I feel like Buddy Holly
'Cause it's Raining in My Heart
All the sad songs
Take me back to you
Now that we are apart
Now I know what
Paul Simon meant
By the words he found:
I wish I was Homeward Bound
Well, I feel like Buddy Holly
'Cause it's Raining in My Heart
All the sad songs
Take me back to you
Now that we are apart
Now I know how
Paul McCartney felt
When he got up to say:
I wish it was Yesterday
I wish it was Yesterday
I wish it was Yesterday
I wish it was Yesterday
