Yesterday Once More

by Carpenters



When I was young,
I'd listened to the radio,
Waitin' for my favorite songs
Waiting 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
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.

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 then
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
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

Shooli li lanwai

Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-wo-wo
Still shines.

Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're starting to sing
So fine.

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.
