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
