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 45s 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 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, that's a game I know so well
Ever since that day you called to say it's over
Now I 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 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 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
