Yesterday Once More is my love Carpenters' songs   

I absolutely love the songs of the Carpenters. I have an old record album of them and would like to get a CD of their work. Each song is sung with such feeling. It moves the listener to whatever the mood of the song is. I am glad that Yesterday Once More gives so much to you.

I grew up listening to the Carpenters' songs because my mother adores them! I was almost named after Karen Carpenter, my mother said. I know most of their songs by heart and I can even imitate Karen's voice. Yesterday once more is a good song. But my favorite Carpenters' song is I Have You:

I have always been a dreamer
Followed visions of my own
I was born to belong
To the lines of the song
And make them my home.

I believe in happy endings
Though I've only known a few
For as rare as they are
Like a bright falling star
I found one in you.

Sometimes, all the world can seem so friendless
And the world ahead so endless
And the dream so far away.
Sometimes, when I'm almost to surrender
Then I stop and I remember
I have you to save my day.

Often my imagination
Has me reaching out too far
When I fell you were there
With your hand in the air
We knew from the start.

Sometimes after all you've done to save me
Through the love you freely gave me
Every step along the way.
Sometimes people ask what keeps me going
And in truth it comes from knowing
I have you to save my day.

Sometimes feeling helpless when I held you
Wishing words would come to tell you,
I have you to save my day.
