It seems like a funky day to me today as I can't seem to get moving and I don't know why... Perhaps it is one of those days where one's mind says rest and do nothing... Maybe that is what I am feeling today... LOL!
At any rate, the Music of the Carpenter's is prompting me to feature them in my Music Interlude for this Sunday... That said, I bring you The Carpenters with a performance of "Only Yesterday", which has snagged some 23,915,170 views on YouTube... I am sure most of you will enjoy it...
LYRICS:
"Only Yesterday" by The Carpenters
"Only Yesterday"
After long enough of being alone
Everyone must face their share of loneliness
In my own time nobody knew
The pain I was goin' through
And waitin' was all my heart could do
Hope was all I had until you came
Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me
You were the dawn breaking the night
The promise of morning light
Filling the world surrounding me
When I hold you
Baby, baby, feels like maybe, things will be all right
Baby, baby, your love's made me
Free as a song, singin' forever
Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind me
Tomorrow maybe even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only yesterday
I have found my home here in your arms
Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be
Life waits for us, share it with me
The best is about to be
So much is left for us to see
When I hold you
Baby, baby, feels like maybe, things will be all right
Baby, baby, your love's made me
Free as a song, singin' forever
Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind me
Tomorrow maybe even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only yesterday
