After long enough of being alone
Everyone must face their share of loneliness
In my own time nobody knew
The pain I was goin' through
And waitin' was all my heart could do
Hope was all I had until you came
Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me
You were the dawn breaking the night
The promise of morning light
Filing the world surrounding me
When I hold you
(*) Baby, Baby
Feels like maybe things will be all right
Baby, Baby
Your love's made me
Free as a song singin' forever
(**) Only yesterday when I was sad
And I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave
The past and all it's tears behind me
Tomorrow may be even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only Yesterday
I have found my home here in your arms
Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be
Life waits for us
Share it with me
The best is about to be
So much is left for us to see
When I hold you
Repeat (*)
Repeat (**) twice
The lyrics ONLY YESTERDAY of THE CARPENTERS is also present in the album Horizon (1975)
The Carpenters furono una celebre coppia di musicisti statunitensi attiva dal 1960 al 1980, composta dai fratelli Richard e Karen Carpenter. Richard, compositore e pianista, forniva le melodie e gli arrangiamenti per le canzoni interpretate dalla sorella Karen, una cantante con un timbro vocale distintivo e potente. Il loro stile musicale si caratterizzava per la fusione di pop, soft rock e musica orchestrale, creando un sound romantico e malinconico che conquistò il pubblico mondiale. Tra i loro successi più famosi ricordiamo "Close to You", "We've Only Just Begun" e "Rainy Days and Mondays". Karen Carpenter, purtroppo, lottò contro la bulimia nervosa e morì nel 1983 all'età di soli 32 anni, segnando la fine del duo. The Carpenters lasciarono un'eredità musicale significativa, vendendo oltre 100 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo e continuano ad essere amati da generazioni di fan.
