When I was was young I'd listen to the radio

Waiting for my favourite 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've gone

But they're back again

Just like a long lost friend all the songs I love so well.

Ev'ry sha-la-la-la, ev'ry wo-o-wo-o still shines.

Ev'ry shing-a-ling-a-ling

That they're startin' to sing 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.

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 them

And I'd memorize each word

Those old melodies still sound so good to me

As they melt the years away.

All my best memories come back clearly to me

Some can even make me cry

Just like before it's yesterday once more
