IF YESTERDAY COULD ONLY BE TOMORROW
Bob Emmerich / Ruth Poll

as rec by The Nat "King" Cole Trio


If yesterday could only be tomorrow,
And I knew then the things that I know now,
There'd be so much more to remember, and nothing to regret,
If I could do it all over, somehow.

I only wish that I had held you closer,
For now you seem a million miles away.
If yesterday could only be tomorrow,
And the clock had stopped just before it reached today.

If yesterday could only be tomorrow,
And the clock had stopped just before it reached today.
