Yesterday once more
When I was young,
I'd listen to the radio,
Waiting 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 love so well.
Every shalalala,
Every wowo still shines,
Every shingalingaling,
That they're starting 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.
Looking back on how it was,
In years gone by,
And the good time 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.
Every shalalala,
Every wowo still shines,
Every shingalingaling,
That they're starting to sing 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 shalalala,
Every wowo still shines,
Every shingalingaling,
That they're starting to sing so fine.
