When I was young
I’d listened 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.
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'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.
