about

I was a huge Karen Carpenter fan as a kid. Plus, the drums. I loved that she really thought of herself as a drummer first, singer second. This song first appeared on The Carpenters album "Now & Then" in 1972.

lyrics

When I was young
I'd listen to the radio
Waitin' 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 loved so well.

Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' 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.

Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's so fine.
All the best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more.
