- Yesterday Once More LyricsWhen 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 loved so well
Every Sha-La-La-La
Every Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling
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
(Shoo-Be-Doo-Da-Day)
(Shoo-Be-Doo-Da-Day)
Looking 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 Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines (Only you it's got goodies)
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling
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
(Shoo-Be-Doo-Da-Day)
Every Sha-La-La-La
Every Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling
That they're starting to sing so fine
Every Sha-La-La-La
Every Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling
That they're starting to sing so fine
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 loved so well
Every Sha-La-La-La
Every Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling
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
(Shoo-Be-Doo-Da-Day)
(Shoo-Be-Doo-Da-Day)
Looking 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
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 Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines (Only you it's got goodies)
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling

All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry just like before

Every Sha-La-La-La
Every Whoa-Oh-Whoa-Oh still shines
Every Shing-A-Ling-A-Ling
That they're starting to sing so fine
