/(or /)
When I was young Id listened to the radio
Waitin for my favorite songs
Waiting they played Id sing along
It made me smile
/(or /)
Those were such happy times, and not so long ago
How I wondered where theyd gone
But now theyre 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 theyre starting to sings
So fine
When they get to the part, where hes breakin her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
Its yesterday once more
/(or /)
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
/(or /)
It was songs of love that I would sing to then
And Id memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away
