When I was young
I�d listened to the radio
Waitin� for my favorite songs
Waiting 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
Repeat (*)
All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It�s yesterday once more
I�d listened to the radio
Waitin� for my favorite songs
Waiting 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
Repeat (*)
All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It�s yesterday once more
