Yesterday's Young

Luis H. Rocha

I was young
Just yesterday
And I never knew
How deep life cuts
How quiet wounds
Can linger on
In the corners of your mind

Every love
Every heartbreak
Every wrong road taken
Left its marks on me
No, I ain’t young
The way I was
But I can take what I have learned
And hand it down to you
So you don’t walk the way I did

So hear me now
'Cause when you stand
Where I'm standin’ today
I pray you won’t
Be weighed down
By all the scars
Of the mistakes I carry with me

But did I learn enough
Can I truly save you

And if the night gets heavy
And shadows pull you down
Don’t let the weight of sorrow
Be the voice that turns you ’round
I walked these winding paths
I paid for every choice
So take what I'm giving you
Seek the path that’s in my voice
