Yesterday Once More The Carpenters (#2 in 1973)

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-o-wo-o, Still shines
    Every shing-a-ling-a-ling,
    That they're startin' 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.
 
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.
   Chorus
 
All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry.
Just like before
It's yesterday once more.
