Hi Paulette,
I've never posted anything on a page like this; I hope I'm doing it correctly, that you see this, and most of all, I hope I'm not giving you misinformation. I've puzzeled overe that lyric for years, and your note caused me to put on my headphones, (easily the first time in a couple of decades) and try to get it it right...here's my best guess "...yesterday could be a song for the years' refrain.
Vacant vessel, me, I've given all, I've been outpoured..."

Hope your surgery is successful.

Kenny, you're the best.
Congratulations on your grandaughter.

Preparing for brain surgery next month, I sing along with each and every song you've sung, but lose my step in "Backstairs of My Life" by Eric Mercury on your heavenly "After the Roses" triumph. What is the line after "Yesterday should be a song for the years refrain...". and the line before "I've given all, I've been outpoured". I looked for the lyrics everywhere...unsuccessfully, can you help please?
