What would you say if I told you I was sorry
And that I've come to realize
Life means nothing without you
Would you take my hand
Would you forgive this man
For ever doubtin your love is true
Could you find it in your heart
To let me try to make it up to you
Yesterday a jealous man
Today a lonely fool
I let love slip right through my hands
With all the hurt I've handed you
I've gotta stop your love from dyin
Lord I'll be livin proof
That yesterday's jealous man
Is today's lonely fool
Darlin from now on I'll be proud
When other men notice you
Instead of gettin mean and loud
Like I used to do
Find some mercy in your heart
And we'll make another start
At the love that we once knew
I won't hurt you anymore
I'm gonna trust you now and never question you
Yesterday a jealous man
Today a lonely fool
I let love slip right through my hands
With all the hurt I've handed you
I've gotta stop your love from dyin
Lord I'll be livin proof
That yesterday's jealous man
Is today's lonely fool
I'm today's lonely fool
Today's lonely fool
