Once Upon A Yesterday

Once upon a yesterday

We were children working hard at play

Tomorrow was a world away

Time was standing still

The magic of the radio

Taught us songs we didn't know

We sang 'em loud, and we sang 'em low

Once upon a yesterday

We heard them sing on Saturday night

Kitty and Roy and Hank

And for a lot of what we know of love and truth

We have them to thank

Once upon a yesterday

Words were swirling in my mind

With melodies that fit the rhyme

Once upon a yesterday

We sang the songs that fit our dreams

And then the dreams came true

Songs of pain and songs of love

All for me and you

Once upon a yesterday

Tomorrow came and went away

And I wrote another song to play

Once upon a yesterday
