Yesterday's News Lyrics

Forgive me if I sound a little sad and insecure
But I feel dissatisfaction and a yearning to have more
It's a tricky situation but I'm willing to hold tight
Is there gonna be some news for me tonight?

Tried to play it calmly, yeah I've tried to play it cool
But it's tough to be the hard guy, it can make you look a fool
It's like standing on a rooftop looking down from a huge height
Is there gonna be some news for me tonight?

Time will keep on ticking even when I'm standing still
And I'll gladly keep on trying to believe I'm off the mill
For I've waited, so frustrated for a sign that you're alright
Is there gonna be some news for me tonight?
Is there gonna be some news for me tonight? (x2)

Maybe on reflection, it's not such a big deal
A friend in need's a pest I hear so I'll just keep it real
Best to bite my lip now to avoid a needless fight
Maybe there's no news for me tonight

But, time will keep on ticking even when I'm standing still
And I'll gladly keep on trying to believe I'm off the mill
For I've waited, so frustrated for a sign
Is there gonna be some news for me tonight?
Is there gonna be some news for me tonight?
