Yesterday Once More

When I was young, I'd listen to the radio
Waiting for my favorite song
When it played, I sang along
It made me smile

Those were such happy times and not so long ago
How I wonder 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 "oh-oh-oh" 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 breaking her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more

Looking 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

Those were the songs of love I would sing to them
And I'd memorized each word
Those old melodies still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away

Every "sha-la-la-la"
Every "oh-oh-oh" 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 "oh-oh-oh" 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

It's yesterday once more
It's yesterday once more
It's yesterday once more
It's yesterday once more
It's yesterday once more
