Current music:Karen Carpenter - Yesterday Once More

Yesterday Once More
When I was young
I'd listened 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-wo-wo
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're starting 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

Repeat (*)

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

i feel old. wish life was just like before -- yesterday once more.

argh i hate how i get so sentimental so easily sometimes; how i cant control my feelings and get overwhelmed by them; how i'm so...weak? fragile? at times. wish i dint have to feel the need to be protected.

sigh.


part and parcel of being human. Back to being ole lqt again, after a night run and some nice tv (historical drama on Qing Dynasty! i like -- as long as it involves interesting plot, nice loves stories and beautiful women :) )

hello qintan, that's a very touching song you've posted

rest assured that EVERYONE feels overwhelmed by their feelings once in a while.
some dont show it, some have learnt their own ways of dealing with these moments.

and i hope, you'll find a way to deal with them^^
i believe that for you, it's somewhat to do with exercising and writing....
