Yesterday Once More By Carpenters


When I was young


I'd listen to the radio

Waitin' for my favorite songs

When they played I'dsing along,

It made me smile

Those were such happy times

And not so long ago

How I wondered where they'd gone

But they're back again

Just like a long lost friend

All the songs I loved so well

Every Sha-la-la-la

Every Wo-wo-wo

Still shines

Every shing-a-ling-a-ling

That they're starting to sing's

So fine

When they get to the part

Where he's breakin' her heartIt can really make me cry

Just like beforeIt's yesterday once more

Lookin' back on how it was

In years gone by

And the good time that I had

Makes today seem rather sad

So much has changed

It was songs of love thatI would sing to then

And I'd memorize each word

Those old melodies

Still sound so good to me

As they melt the years away

All my best memories

Come back clearly to me

Some can even make me cry

Just like beforeIt's yesterday once more
