What showtunes do we know of which use the word or talk about "yesterday?" "Lennon" may use Yesterday (of Beatles fame), but is there anything else? Thanks y'all.

"Yesterday was plain awful/You can say that again/Yesterday was plain awful/But that's/Not now/That's then"
I Was Born on the Day Before Yesterday- The Wiz
Yesterday's Love- The Times
hmm....
"... who got off of the plane and the train and the bus maybe yesterday!!!"
-Another Hundred People, Company
The ongoing theme of Merrily We Roll Along goes "yesterday is done"...
Also, there's:
"Yesterday I Loved You" from Once Upon a Mattress
"Poor Child from The Wild Party ("I wasn't born yesterday")
"The Best of Times" from La Cage ("not some forgotten yesterday")
The title song from She Loves Me ("yesterday she loathed me")
"That Was Yesterday" from Milk and Honey
"Putting It Together" from Sunday in the Park with George ("and yesterday's forgotten")
"Something is stirring,
Shifting ground …
It's just begun.
Edges are blurring
All around,
And yesterday is done."
Our Time, Merrily We Roll Along
"Yesterdays" from Jerome Kern's ROBERTA
Thanks all!

I can't think of any, but Lennon won't be using 'Yesterday'. There are no Beatles songs in the show (unfortunatly)
