Girl from Yesterday Verse I’ve been chasing shadows Looking for ghosts Mirages I watch fade. I’ve been searching faces Hoping I’d find The girl who got away. Pre chorus I catch a glimpse once in awhile Of her familiar smile. I see her then she fades away. The sun’s last glorious rays. Chorus She comes to visit but never stays The girl from yesterday. Girl from yesterday. Verse I’ve been having trouble Finding myself. Forgetting how things were. I’ve been going crazy trying to find Another girl like her. Pre chorus I catch a glimpse once in awhile Of her familiar smile. I see her then she fades away. The sun’s last glorious rays. Chorus She comes to visit but never stays The girl from yesterday. Girl from yesterday. Bridge I doubt that I’ll ever forget her. Never love someone else that way. The girl from Yesterday.

re- titled and re-wrote it.
Girl who got away Verse I’ve been chasing shadows Looking for ghosts Mirages I watch fade. I’ve been searching faces Hoping I’d find The girl who got away. Pre chorus I catch a glimpse now and then Of her familiar smile. I see her then she fades away. I’m happy for awhile. Chorus She comes to visit but never stays The girl who got away. I try but I can’t forget about The girl who got away. Verse I’ve been having trouble Finding myself. Forgetting how things were. I’ve been going crazy trying to find Another girl like her. Pre chorus I catch a glimpse once in awhile Of her familiar smile. I see her then she fades away.

Just thinking. A songwriter I like uses 'ghost' in their lyric as memory of a past lover. Thinking this I added a bit to your first three lines: I've been chasing shadows But only finding ghosts And mirages I watch, fade away. Keep or sweep of course. Also, new here, I'll write something later and would appreciate you grabbing some of the lines and adding to them. I find that gets the feedback gets the things swirling around some and adds to perception. Bill

"If one man can do it, any man can do it. It is true. But the real question is, if one man did it, are you willing to do what it takes to do it as well?" –Brian Austin Whitney
