Yesterday Once More Lyrics - The Singles 1969-1973 - The Carpenters

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.

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. 

All my best memories 

Come back clearly to me 

Some can even make me cry. 

Just like before 

It's yesterday once more.
