There’s an island breeze Up to my knees
Where the palm trees sway In old Hawai’i-nei
Sail along the shore It’s an open door
Everything’s ok In old Hawai’i-nei
When I saw you in the sunset On the beach at Waikiki
I never even wondered If this love was meant to be
We should be together Every single day
To walk the golden sands Of Hawai’i-nei
Where i was before I will return no more
It’s a beautiful day In old Hawai’i-nei
If you look for me Try the coconut tree
Now we aho’e In old Hawai’i-nei
O Tahiti-e And old Hawai’i-nei
