Yesterday Once More

Carpenters

    Continues after the ad

    When I was young
    I'd listen to the radio
    Waitin' for my favorite songs
    When they played I'd sing 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 heart
    It can really make me cry
    Just like before
    It's yesterday once more

    Continues after the ad

    Lookin' back on how it was
    In years gone by
    And the good times that I had
    Makes today seem rather sad
    So much has changed

    It was songs of love that
    I would sing to them

    And I'd memorize each word
    Those old melodies
    Still sound so good to me
    As they melt the years away

    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

    All my best memories
    Come back clearly to me
    Some can even make me cry
    Just like before
    It's yesterday once more

    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
