Yesterday Once More / Mascarade

When I was young I'd listen to the radio
Waiting for my favorite song
When they'd play "I've Been Alone"
It'd make me smile
Those were so happy times and not so long ago
How I wonder where they've gone

But they're back again just like a long-lost friend
And the song I like so well
Every sha-la-la-la, every wo-wo-wo still shines
Every ting-a-ling-a-ling that starts to seem so fine
When they get to the part where he's breaking her heart
It can really make me cry just like before
It's just what they want it for

Are we really happy with this lonely game we play
Looking for the right words to say?
Searching but not finding understanding anyway
We're loving masquerade

For too afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way
We're loving inside this lonely game we play
That all would disappear if you'd turn and see right
We're loving masquerade
We're loving masquerade
