When I was young I'd listen to the radio

Waitin' for my fav'rite 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

Ev'ry sha-la-la-la ev'ry wo-ho-wo-ho 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

Ev'ry sha-la-la-la ev'ry wo-ho-wo-ho still shines

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

That they're startin' 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

Ev'ry sha-la-la-la ev'ry wo-ho-wo-ho still shines

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

That they're startin' to sing so fine

Ev'ry sha-la-la-la ev'ry wo-ho-wo-ho still shines

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

That they're startin' to sing so fine
