Lyrics

I took a little trip to my home town

I only stopped just to look around

And as I walked along the thorough-fare

There was music playing everywhere

The music came from within my heart

How did it happen, how did it start?

I only know that I fell in love

I guess the answer lies up above

Oh, what a feeling

My heart was reeling

The bells were ringing

The birds were singing

And so the music, it goes on and on

All through the night until the break of dawn

I hear a birdie up in the tree

I hear him sing this melody

And so he sings

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)

Oh, what a feeling

My heart was reeling

The bells were ringing

The birds were singing

And so the music, it goes on and on

All through the night until the break of dawn

And every evening, when the sun goes down

I'm with my love in my home town

And so I sing

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya, Ho-ho-ho-ho)

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)

Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (ya-ya-ya-ya)
