Every time i hear this song i feel like crying because, i too remember when i was young. You canot reverse time...true, real (youth) cannot be bought..., no matter how much money you have. Your just left with so many memories, both good and bad, and back to a time where you had the whole world at your feet and your whole life ahead of you..
Having religion is like having a penis. It's ok to have one and ok to use it - but you don't get it out in public and you don't try ramming it down someone else's throat!!
Born in 1960, I'm listening to this in 2025. This song beautifully sums it up. May God's grace and mercy honor me more years to glorifying Him until this race is complete.
My Father played this song For me shortly before he passed away a year and a half ago. He cried and he confessed his awareness of how badly he treated my mother, his kids and friends throughout his life. I forgive him.
I am here again listening to my song yesterday! When I am in my room alone, I am just thinking of my younger years and wish I could start over to make things different. 😢 How I wish we could born and get mature knowing everything we know today. 🤔 Sending love and blessings to all who read this. GOD BLESS YOU. 🙌🏼
When I was in my early twenties, my mother would sing this song or listen to it and cry. I didn’t really understand her tears at the time. Now I am my mother. I’m writing this through my tears.
Beautiful Song and sooo veröffentlicht true, now i am 76 and always burst into teams listening to it, friends and family members are no länger arround, halte is extremly weak
I hear this song at the ages of 15 and now im 42 years old but still young bcouse im playing playstation 5 and watching tome and jerry and donald duck😂😂😂2025..
When I first heard this song I was a teenager it was ok, now I am in my sixties and now this song means so much to me it brought me to tears because life moves so fast. I remember yesterday when I was young.
it makes you realise how swiftly those young youthful days have gone by and nothing is for ever..... Do enjoy the goodness of the moment you are in and leave happily without any remorse !!
Crying listening to this music as I ponder through the good and bad years growing up. And how many painful memories more than good ones. Makes me wonder why I'm still here when it's easier and no more heartaches to move on to the other side.
I ran so fast, that I thought that I would burn up....now I sit on my front porch hardly able to walk...so many songs I have sung as the years have ran away...memories like so many leaves in the wind pass before my eyes everyday...they keep me company as I mumble the melodies of so many happy songs from my younger days...so many friends have passed into memories....I cannot believe that I did not burn up when I was young so fast did I run that I thought that I would touch the very sun. Now I sit on my porch and reflect on the days when I was young, when I still believed, when hope still sang to me of that which only the young believe....it was a life filled with songs, hope, and love and now in my old age, I dare to remember that time!
I loved Glen Campbell. He sang like an angel. This is my favourite rendition of this song. It really gets to my heart and soul. love you Glen. Now you're singing with my papa in heaven.😪
I think this discribes many peoples life's, what we could have done but didn't. I'm one of those people. I have had quite a good life don't get me wrong, but looking back does bring a lump I my throat of what else iv missed. DON'T WASTE YOUR LIFE. Its a very short time here. I'm now just coming up to 66 👌😁👍
كنت اعمل في دار للمسنين . كان احد المرضى يطلب مني تشغيل هذه الاغنية له كل يوم . كان يبلغ من العمر ٩٣ عاما . كنت انظر في عينيه وهو يستمع لها . كان يبدو شاردا وكأنه في عالم آخر . احببت هذه الاغنية كثيرا . اتمنى ان يتقدم بي العمر واستمع لهذه الاغنية فيما بعد . لاشعر بما كان يشعر وهو شارد . اغنية جميلة جدا ❤
Now at my 51 listening this so ng thank for my yesterday and now many things run out but no regerts thankfully for God the everyday Everything ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Im at my 50's now can stop but cry listening to this song,how i wish we would stay young,for our children,,my youngest is at its his 15 now,and i pray to GOD he will let me live until i see and hug my grandchildren from my youngest🙏🙏🙏🙏
@louistran4197 también la cantó Dusty Springfild, Shirley Bassey, Charles Aznavur y muy bien ejecutadas , pero Sandro hizo el cover en español muy mal traducida la canción 🎉😢 ., Thanks for the lyrics, from CDMX !!
Yesterday, when I was young The taste of life was sweet Like rain upon my tongue I teased at life as if It were a foolish game The way an evening breeze Would tease a candle flame The thousand dreams I dreamed The splendid things I planned I always built to last On weak and shifting sand I lived by night and shunned The naked light of day And only now I see How the years have ran away Yesterday, when I was young There were so many songs That waited to be sung So many wild pleasures That lay in store for me And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see I ran so fast that time And youth at last ran out I never stopped to think What life was all about And every conversation That I can recall Concerns itself with me And nothing else at all Yesterday, the moon was blue And every crazy day Brought something new to do And I used my magic age As if it were a wand And never saw the waste And emptiness beyond The game of love I played With arrogance and pride And every flame I lit So quickly, quickly died The friends I made all seemed Somehow to drift away And only I am left On stage to end the play Yesterday, when I was young There were so many songs That waited to be sung So many wild pleasures That lay in store for me And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see There are so many songs in me that won't be sung I feel the bitter taste Of tears upon my tongue And The time has come for me To pay for yesterday When I was young.
It's not bad to enjoy your youth but you must keep in your mind that nothing last forever. And never end up with regrets for the things you should and shouldn't done when you're still young.
This song is for me at 65...I remember it playing when I was young...and knew someday when I'm old I could play it again and again to remember when I was young!
Among all the songs about 'yesterday', this song is the best but it's a very underrated song. Maybe people can understand this song after the age of 40 or even later. Whenever I listen to the song, everything from the past visualized in front of my eyes like some movie and I get very emotional.
Will forever love this song as this was my late brother's favorite song. I love my brother so dearly and i miss him so much. I always cry when I hear this song. I will keep playing this song until I die and be with my brother again.
This song perfectly reflects my Yesterday when i was young and all the foolish things i have done . There were sadly consequences and i paid dearly . So many wasted years ,if i had only known then what i know now , but i can honestly say i am at Peace now thank God !
I feel so lucky I hear this song again now in my 40's... never too late to change things and make up for the wasted years not really wasted coz those were lessons. Thank you for the song.❤️❤️❤️
This is one of the best renditions I have ever seen. The canoe that moves from right to left and leaves the picture with the ending of the song. The lyrics that perfectly match Glen Campbells beautiful voice. The overall meaning of the song from your past to the present and the future. It is what we all go through and teaches us how we should treat one another!
This song relates to my life . When I was young , I didn't think about the future , I just did what I wanted to do & hang the consequences, taking each day as it came . Now I am 71 & have leukaemia & will soon have to pay for the consequences. I look back thinking that I wasted my life . Don't waste yours.
The memories of the past reborn again by this song. It goes thru your heart touching deeply into your soul to brought you in tears remembering those younger days of yesterday's.
i have lost so many friends over the last 25 years. so the line "and only i am left on stage to end the play" tears at my heart. at 63 i know i have far fewer days ahead of me than i have behind me. until it's my time to go i will continue to remember when i was young.
i realy in tears...as boy with two sisters and one brother who past away..i regret a lot of time that me and my sibling's staying far apart..if i can go back and turn the time back,i will choose to stay beside them..i miss those times when we where young
this reminds me of my dearly beloved father who loves me soooooooMUCH AND what i didn't\did do that made him sad and rejoice.. i jz can't stop thinking HOW BEiN a FATHER's GiRL COULD have a negative impact on how i would be treated both my mom and siblings..BUT that made me love my dearly beloved father the MOST.. YOU WiLL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN iTAY..it still makes me cry jz thinkin bout you and listenin to this song.. #GODBLESSus
Every time i hear this song i feel like crying because, i too remember when i was young. You canot reverse time...true, real (youth) cannot be bought..., no matter how much money you have. Your just left with so many memories, both good and bad, and back to a time where you had the whole world at your feet and your whole life ahead of you..
Whatever foolishness we did when we were young, we could always renew it and start a brand new life today by seeking God and have him in our heart ...
This song telling my life with its words
Yes
Having religion is like having a penis. It's ok to have one and ok to use it - but you don't get it out in public and you don't try ramming it down someone else's throat!!
Amen🙏🏻❤
Amen❤
Born in 1960, I'm listening to this in 2025. This song beautifully sums it up. May God's grace and mercy honor me more years to glorifying Him until this race is complete.
God blessed us all
My Father played this song For me shortly before he passed away a year and a half ago. He cried and he confessed his awareness of how badly he treated my mother, his kids and friends throughout his life. I forgive him.
It's wonderful that your Father came to that awareness. ❤
Very few people regret their bad behaviour. My parents never did.
My mom kind of said she was sorry, my dad... never. Narcissist the whole way
I am here again listening to my song yesterday!
When I am in my room alone, I am just thinking of my younger years and wish I could start over to make things different. 😢
How I wish we could born and get mature knowing everything we know today. 🤔
Sending love and blessings to all who read this. GOD BLESS YOU. 🙌🏼
It's the same for me my friend!
So true Maria!

Am also 66 and I love and listen to it until now since the time of ms. nora aunor
I hear this song at the ages of 15 and now im 42 years old but still young bcouse im playing playstation 5 and watching tome and jerry and donald duck😂😂😂2025..
I used to dance with these song in my twenties, never realized about lyrics. It 's so sad to heard it when i 'm 72😢😢😢😢

Thank you very much
Old songs are the best I'm 28 years old and I loved old songs rather than the songs of this generation
true
Wise kid!
It's not old song. It's still beautiful song whit a real meaning. And I stop it! Thank youngster. Jeune homme !
You are very wise God has a special lite on you take it as a sign and run with the blessing of wisdom.
^Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory^
This song always makes cry. Sometimes, it stays with me for days.
This song makes aging a painfully wonderful experience.
"Если бы молодость знала, если бы старость могла."
The song reminds me how i survived youthful struggle for success! Ultimately, i achieved my dream!
OMG, how time flies...sometimes I can't believe I'm now in my mid-sixties.
Beautiful song, I'm moved.
I’m also in my mid 60s. Those were the days that we could do anything that we want. Enjoy life. We can not turn back the hands of time
I keep replaying this over and over again. This is a very beautiful song. It touches my whole being, my whole past, my life.
Magistral canción
As it does for so many of us
I feel the same
I love it by Roy Clark also. Beautiful song.
I am debating whether or or not to play this at my funeral
Such a powerful song. All I can do is tear up when I hear it. It pulls on my heart strings. Reflection.
Still listening to it, anyone? June 2024.
I am still listening this beautiful nostalgia song❤
I listen all the time it reminds me of my mum & Dad who played Glen all through my childhood 💔
Till the day I die...
It's me！ 18th August 2024 I'm 75yrs

When I first heard this song I was a teenager it was ok, now I am in my sixties and now this song means so much to me it brought me to tears because life moves so fast. I remember yesterday when I was young.
❤

I can relate with you 😊

I feel exactly like you do.!!!
This song describes my life. I'm 62 now and the lyrics pertain to me.

I am also 62 and all the plans that I made and tried that did not work out .I built on weak and shifting sand .
Feeling the same.
So am I time fly fast by
I always listened to this song over and over again. This song is really beautiful. I cry when I hear it. Not boring
Jjjjj8i i TT fcze
A bittersweet reminder of a yesterday not wisely spent... a song beautifully sung by the rhinestone cowboy...
My father's favourite song when I was a kid. Now that he's gone, tears fall and dries my throat everytime I hear this song. A very wonderful song.
RIP.
it makes you realise how swiftly those young youthful days have gone by and nothing is for ever.....
Do enjoy the goodness of the moment you are in and leave happily without any remorse !!
Crying listening to this music as I ponder through the good and bad years growing up. And how many painful memories more than good ones. Makes me wonder why I'm still here when it's easier and no more heartaches to move on to the other side.
Don't say that. You are alive for a reason. We all feel that way sometimes, but we must have something unfinished because we wake up! God bless you.
I ran so fast, that I thought that I would burn up....now I sit on my front porch hardly able to walk...so many songs I have sung as the years have ran away...memories like so many leaves in the wind pass before my eyes everyday...they keep me company as I mumble the melodies of so many happy songs from my younger days...so many friends have passed into memories....I cannot believe that I did not burn up when I was young so fast did I run that I thought that I would touch the very sun.

A beautiful song sung by many wonderfully talented artists but this version by Glen is the best
Yesterday, when I was young
The taste of life was sweet
Like rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if
It were a foolish game
The way an evening breeze
Would tease a candle flame
The thousand dreams I dreamed
The splendid things I planned
I always built to last
On weak and shifting sand
I lived by night and shunned
The naked light of day
And only now I see
How the years have ran away
Yesterday, when I was young
There were so many songs
That waited to be sung
So many wild pleasures
That lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
I ran so fast that time
And youth at last ran out
I never stopped to think
What life was all about
And every conversation That I can recall
Concerns itself with me
And nothing else at all
Yesterday, the moon was blue
And every crazy day
Brought something new to do
And I used my magic age
As if it were a wand
And never saw the waste
And emptiness beyond
The game of love I played
With arrogance and pride
And every flame I lit
So quickly, quickly died
The friends I made all seemed
Somehow to drift away
And only I am left
On stage to end the play
Yesterday, when I was young
There were so many songs
That waited to be sung
So many wild pleasures
That lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste
Of tears upon my tongue
And The time has come for me
To pay for yesterday
When I was young.
Every word that goes to it's stansa has brought a firm truance of what life is all about. It's a superb song. The Composer is GREAT AND VERY CREDIBLE.
It's not bad to enjoy your youth but you must keep in your mind that nothing last forever. And never end up with regrets for the things you should and shouldn't done when you're still young.
As for me, i am listening with tears rolling down my cheeks.... and i am a father..❤
This is so true that
tears would well up in my eyes for my
reckless indiscretion
that caused much pain and heartache
to others. I am sorry
Yesterday was such a different world. I am now 65 and this song somehow pertains to me.
Veryvery good
Sheer perfection! How it inspires me to be more than I am!
the Author of this song is a genius from the heart
Listening to this in my late 70's, and thinking of the days gone past, yesterday.
I remember my father of this song .very memorable song.when I was young.
... Great song ever, to remember the pass when i was young , now im 62
I love this song ❣️❣️. Good afternoon
Yeah! When i was young, full of happy memories.
This song is for me at 65...I remember it playing when I was young...and knew someday when I'm old I could play it again and again to remember when I was young!

Will forever love this song as this was my late brother's favorite song. I love my brother so dearly and i miss him so much. I always cry when I hear this song. I will keep playing this song until I die and be with my brother again.
Amen
This song keeps me going through my 50s. The song "My Way" kept me going through my 40s. Thank you, Glen.
Mr. Glenn thank you for giving us so much joy thru you music.
I'm 74yo. When I was young I could easily play this song, but now I'm old and afraid to play it, but I still do.
This song perfectly reflects my Yesterday when i was young and all the foolish things i have done . There were sadly consequences and i paid dearly . So many wasted years ,if i had only known then what i know now , but i can honestly say i am at Peace now thank God !
Good song, how doing Berlinerin?
How are you doing?

It is what we all go through and teaches us how we should treat one another!
I hadn't noticed the boat ... how lovely 💜💙
Yesterday when I was young!... Now I'm old @65 ! 😢 memories.
This song relates to my life . When I was young , I didn't think about the future , I just did what I wanted to do & hang the consequences, taking each day as it came .

Song at All times. Amazing. Wonderful.
For me I don't remember I heard this song before, but it is very nice and touching specially if you are above 50😄
The bitter thruth we must face
I fell the power of this very beautifull song.☺️☺️☺️🥲🥲🥲
The memories of the past reborn again by this song. It goes thru your heart touching deeply into your soul to brought you in tears remembering those younger days of yesterday's.
This song is always in my heart. Being young is a joy but now I am already old. If I want to feel young I just listen to old classical songs.
Beautiful ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Oh My God. It cuts right through the heart. It's so true!
i have lost so many friends over the last 25 years. so the line "and only i am left on stage to end the play" tears at my heart. at 63 i know i have far fewer days ahead of me than i have behind me. until it's my time to go i will continue to remember when i was young.
I recall my high school days i remember so many things, i really miss those yester years. And all my past memories! I miss my family and love one's.
I am approaching 60 and I am touched by the song and your comments.
i realy in tears...as boy with two sisters and one brother who past away..i regret a lot of time that me and my sibling's staying far apart..if i can go back and turn the time back,i will choose to stay beside them..i miss those times when we where young
