Dreaming of a yesteryear

Dreaming of a yesteryear
1920’s style song (Irvine Berlin/Chico Marx) sort of like “larr’ dee’ darr’ dee’ darr’ dee’ darr... corn chips, salsa, and guacamole”

In the early twentieth century, Einstein put forward his theory of relativity, but all I knew was you were close relative-to-me... in the early twentieth century.

I’m dreaming of a yesteryear, before the sands of time came between us dear, back when our world just seemed oh so clear... I’m still dreaming of a yesteryear.

Do you remember 30AD? You said “Jesus?” I said “no, not me”. Then we laughed in sweet harmony, sidestepped a crucifix and just walked on free. That was back in 30AD.

I’m dreaming of a yesteryear, before the sands of time came between us dear, back when our world just seemed oh so clear... I’m still dreaming of a yesteryear.

Hey, what about 3millionBC? Man were but monkeys swinging in trees. And who do you think was on the highest branch, reaching for the stars and the moon of cheese? That was you and me… in the year 3millionBC.

I’m dreaming of a yesteryear, before the sands of time came between us dear, back when our world just seemed oh so clear... I’m still dreaming of a yesteryear.

Way back in the year 3billionBC, I was just a single cell swimming in the sea. But no one was there to swim beside me, until I split in two to form, yes – you and me. It all started back in 3billionBC.

I’m dreaming of a yesteryear, before the sands of time came between us dear, back when our world just seemed oh so clear... I’m still dreaming of a yesteryear.

Maybe one day I’ll look to the future, but my biggest fear is that you won’t be near. So for now I’ll just close my eyes and think of you and me my dear – still living somewhere in yesteryear.
