Yum dida dida, I love to play this melody,

Yum dida dida, the melody you sang to me.

Here beside my piano, I linger,

Picking out a memory with just one finger.

Yum dida dida, the music brings me close to you,

Maybe if I play it long enough it will come true,

Now you're far away and I'm alone and so I play

Yum dida dida, da yum dida dida, all day.

<musical interlude>

Yum dida dida, the music brings me close to you,

Maybe if I play it long enough it might come true,

Now you're far away and I'm alone and so I play

Yum dida dida, da yum dida dida, all day.

(Yum dida dida da ooo, yum dida dida da ooo)

Yum dida dida, da ooo.
