Hello, One of my favorites on Karen's solo songs is Leave Yesterday Behind. It sounds so much like the Carpenter sound. Does anyone know the words to this song? My other favorites are Midnight and Love Makin Love to You but I have those words thanks to an earlier posting but I don't believe LYB was on there so I'd like to have them as well. Thanks  |

Hi beaner. I love this song, it is so beautiful and the lyrics really do have a meaning. I don't think it was a Karen solo, it was recorded by Carpenters in 1978 for a TV movie theme. Here are the lyrics: When the morning sunrise Becomes a magic show Before your very eyes And all the sounds of life Begin to harmonize You hear a song of hope Surround your senses And feel the promise of a brand new kind of world Lose your defenses Unlock your mind Unwind and follow me Come let me help you see How to find the way to leave yesterday behind We should be together when we're this close we're bound to work it out somehow We found a dream to share Don't lose it now Just let my song of love Surround your senses And feel the promise of a brand new kind of world Lose your defenses Unlock your mind You know I love you (Love you) Come let me show you (show you) How to find the way to leave yesterday behind  |

Thanks so much for the words, Rick! Lately, I just can't seem to get enough of this song. I burned a CD for myself of all my favorites but realized that I would have to call this the first of many cause I have so many favorites. Anyway, I put LYB on this first one and I just love it.
Thanks again.

One of my favs from ATGB and another Karen work lead plus Richard and musicians proving again from basic tracks -great songs arise  This would be my fav along with And When He Smiles as choices for any UK singles -that could kick start Carpenters singles elswhere -perhaps even in USA .....shock.....

Awesome song. Initially Rainbow Connection was my fave from ATGB. I still love Rainbow, but Leave Yesterday Behind has a good feeling and I love the words.
I agree Peteruk this would make a good single to kickstart the C's again.
