-- OR -- 
It wasnt really sad ... the way they said good-bye
Or maybe it just hurt so bad ... she couldnt cry
He packed his things walked out the door and drove away
And she became .. the girl from yesterday
He took a plane across the sea to some foreign land
She stayed at home and tried so hard to understand
How someone who had been so close ... could be so far away
And she became ... the girl from yesterday
She doesnt know whats right ... she doesnt know whats wrong
She only knows the pain that comes ... from waiting for so long
And she doesnt count the teardrops ... that shes cried while hes away
Because she knows deep in her heart ... that he'll be back someday
BREAK
The lights on in the window ... shes waiting by the phone
Talking to a memory ... thats never coming home
She dreams of his returning ... and the things that he might say
But she'll always be ... the girl from yesterday
Yeh, she'll always be ... the girl from yesterday
