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
Just like before
It's yesterday once more.
About afew posts back I mentioned 'back to basics'. Well 'Yesterday Once More' goes well with it. I mean, it's like yesterday for me. Back to the start when I took my step, I had all my physical needs catered for. But then, I was always alone. Didn't have a dad till my step dad showed up when I was around 8. He married my mom afew years after that.
All I had for company was the tv and the maid. Well yeah maids come and go so besides my very first maid I actually remember who lasted like 10 years with us, I slowly ever stopped communicating with anyone. Just like today, it's back to yesterday. I talk to my blog.... And that's it. Well you could count in that I've been narrating to myself since I could remember but I think everyone does that.
Those were the days I chased after what I wanted the most. Paleonthology, physics, history and other assorted stuff. I didn't have the memory for those things that I do now. You could say I really memorised those stuff by heart compared to now. I selectively remember key points which enable me to form up the whole thing anytime I want.
More on my physical life, it was anime and documentaries with stuff like power rangers and ultra-man which I later grew out of. Only interest for the first 2 stayed. Never really hanged out with others much. Everyday was basically a rush to go home unless I wanted to go sight seeing alone. Back home I'd just slack, the day flew by slowly and that's it. This kind of explains why I never get bored just sitting at home. Hell it's been with me since I was born. I kind of never grew out of it. My tastes change, my thoughts mature but my habits still remain the same.
Every little thing I'd ask my Mum constantly and I kept getting scolded, so ended up, I got used to explaining to myself why. Kinda lonely for a little kid huh? You could say I had everything but people around me. Used to be really talkative during Primary school too. I mean really talkative. Mom said I started talking at a really tender age ( can't remember what though). But due to how I grew up it now is selective. I can yap away to certain people, at certain times, on certain topics but not always.
Now it's as though I'm the only one who remembers. The people who appear around me once in awhile, they don't remember it the way I do. Well.. Maybe except Bri but then she's an exception... She started her life with Victoria. It's complicated and I don't want to explain what relation this has to anything so I'll just leave it as that.
Back to the present, learned a whole bunch of important life lessons today. Will share a single one liner that I managed to express into words. "If dignity and code comes first, you have a tough life ahead of you". Plenty more where that came from but as usual, can't find the words to express. I'm not saying that line is wrong but, it kind of just explains why. All you prideful people out there, all you completely logical people, when you only see it that way, you got to force your way in a straight line. Maybe it's just me but, not everything is better 'by the book' nor do they conform to logic.
