# 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've gone
But they're back again
Just like a long lost friend all the songs
I love so well
# Every sha-la-la-la, every wo-o-o still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they 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
