3.Yesterday Once More

Written:Richard Carpenter/John Bettis

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 my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more
*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

昨日重现

年轻时候的我,喜欢守在收音机旁,
等候喜爱歌曲的播放,然后跟着一同哼唱。
这带给了我欢笑。那真是一段愉快的时光。
而不久前我才感叹它的消逝,但如今它又回来,
就像流散许久的朋友。这些我所热爱的歌曲,
每一句Sha-la-la-la,每一句Wo-o-wo-o依旧盈绕耳旁。
他们唱的每一句Shing-a-ling-a-ling依旧美妙如常,
当唱到他伤她心的地方,一如往昔地,我泪落双行。
这正是昨日重现的景象。

回首当年的光景和我曾拥有的欢乐时光,
使得今日格外地苍凉,因为物换星移,人事全非。
那些我曾唱过的爱情歌曲,我都记得每字每句。
那些逐渐消失在岁月里的古老旋律,听来依旧甜蜜。
每一句Sha-la-la-la,每一句Wo-o-wo-o依旧美妙如常。
他们唱的每一句Shing-a-ling-a-ling依旧美妙。
我最美好的回忆,清晰地呈现眼前,一如往昔地,
我又泪落只行。这正是昨日重现的情况。

*每一句Sha-la-la-la,每一句Wo-o-wo-o,他们唱的每一句
Shing-a-ling-a-ling,依旧美妙如常。*
