Her shining hour is long since passed
Her future it is fading fast
While all around the bugle plays
Shes made of yesterdays
Her mother says she did her best
Her father says he might have guessed
Her friends all say itÔÇÖs just a phase
SheÔÇÖs made of yesterdays
Shes made of used-to-bes
The should-have-beens are all she sees
She might beg and she might borrow
But thereÔÇÖs no today
And no tomorrow
SheÔÇÖll tell you who she could have been
And everyone who did her in
How she almost set the sky ablaze
Shes made of yesterdays
She still gets high to ÔÇ£Purple HazeÔÇØ
Shes made of yesterdays
Shes made of yesterdays
