All Our Yesterdays Songtext

von Alan Parsons

The stakes are high
We have to seize the chance
A case of do or die
This is our last dance

A moment's hesitation and we always pay the price
Hiding in the wings is just like walking on thin ice

All our yesterdays will soon be ended
Hide the walking shadow on the stage
All our yesterdays be soon forgotten
There's an easy way to turn the page

The vision is too real
The prize is there to take
We're on an even keel
No demons in our wake

If you stack the cards you will one day find your heaven
Both sides of the dice are always adding up to seven

All our yesterdays will soon be ended
Hide the walking shadow on the stage
All our yesterdays be soon forgotten
There's an easy way to turn the page

Yesterday's tomorrow is tomorrow's yesterday
Destiny's forgotten, there's another game to play
No more future perfect we just need the present tense
All our yesterdays are only hanging in suspense

Hang the banners high
On the outward walls
The battle's lost and won
That's when the hammer falls

Blazing to the future, we must never lose our way
All we have to do is take tomorrow's chance today

All our yesterdays have come of age
Now we all can sing a different song
All our yesterdays have all departed
The writing on the wall will soon be gone

All our yesterdays (all our yesterdays)
Now we all can sing a different song
All our yesterdays (all our yesterdays)
The writing on the wall will soon be gone

All our yesterdays have come of age
The writing on the wall will soon be gone
