Yesterdays Star

[Verse]
Once upon a man
Who had a magic touch
But now he lost iy
And he ain't left with much
He was up there for a while
But his song went out of style
Seems like yesterday's star
Is nobody today

[Verse]
Once upon a man
Who could really knock 'em dead
But now he lost it
They threw bottles instead
He could hold 'em in his hand
Now it's hard to understand
Seems like yesterday's star
Is nobody today

[Chorus]
A song was all he ever had to give
Without it there's no reason left to live
If only he could summon up
A brand new melody
So the spotlight might shine again
On yesterdays star
So he keeps on playing

[Verse]
Playing, yes he's playing again
Another one night stand
With a whiskey in his hand
The clubs are getting smaller
The audience got thin
The record label cut him
But he's got to keep on playing

[Chorus]
A song was all he ever had to give
Without it there's no reason left to live
His worn out guitar nobody remembers
Yesterdays star

[Outro]
There was a time
He had that magic touch
