[Verse 1: Hanni, Hyein]
You just get my heart pump, pumping
Everytime that you’re here around me
The singing voice flows again, yeah, yeah
Why it took so long today
I’m always so excited to meet you
My scent finds you first (finds you first), yeah
[Refrain: Haerin, Minji]
Even if I close my eyes, I remember, I’ll follow you wherever you go
You’re so delicate, hidden in a bubble
Uh-uh-uh
Oh, you make my heart melt away
You’re a softie, like a cloud
I can’t explain this in words, you got me
Oh, oh-oh, oh
We are already like balloons high up in the distance
Have you right here in a basket

[Chorus: Hanni, Danielle]
Oh, my baby, sweet like bubble gum
Bouncing like playing ball
Raise me higher
We’re gonna fly away
Sweet like bubble gum
So smooth, soft like a hug
fly me farther
Let’s go far away

[Bridge: Danielle, Haerin]
You’re my favorite flavor
Bubble gum
Bubble, bubble, bubble, bubble, bubble, bubble
Bubble, bubble, bubble gum

[Verse 2: Minji, Danielle]
I’ll tell you a story
Like I got nothing better to do
Fits right in the palm of my hand, yeah, yeah
A secret that only I want to know (Oh-oh)
All I know is I need this feeling (Oh-oh)
My shine catches you first, yeah (Ooh, oh)

[Refrain: Haerin, Hanni]
Even if I close my eyes, I remember (I remember)
I’ll follow you anywhere (I’ll follow you)
You’re so delicate Hidden in a bubble
Uh-uh-uh
Oh, you make my heart melt away
You’re a softie, like a cloud
I can’t explain this in words
You got me, oh-oh

[Chorus: Danielle, Minji]
Sweet like bubble gum
Bouncing like playing ball
Raise me higher
We’re gonna fly away
Sweet like bubble gum
So smooth, soft like a hug
fly me farther
Let’s go far away

[Refrain: Minji, Haerin]
Even if I close my eyes, I remember
I want to follow you anywhere
You’re so delicate Hidden in a bubble
Uh-uh-uh
Oh, you make my heart melt away
You’re a softie, like a cloud
I can’t explain this in words
You got me, oh-oh

[Outro: Danielle, Hanni, Minji, Haerin]
We are already far away
Like a high balloon
Have you right here in a basket
Oh, my baby, sweet like bubble gum
We are already far away
Like a high balloon
Have you right here in a basket
Oh, my baby, sweet like bubble gum
