I fell in love with Honolulu, when I saw a girl with flowers in her hair When she gave me her aloha smile, I was glad that I could stay awhile. I fell in love with Honolulu, when we walked together on Waikiki sands Watched the glowing sunset hand in hand, felt the tradewinds caress. And though I went away, my heart stayed on Will she be waiting for me, will she be gone. I’m going back to Honolulu, to the island girl with flowers in her hair If she’s waiting I will hold her close, and never stray from Honolulu In Hawaii nei. Your tropic nights and your wonderful charms, are ever in my memory And I recall when I held in my arms, an angel sweet and heavenly. Waikiki, my whole life is empty without you I miss the magic about you, magic beside the sea Magic of Waikiki. Oh Honolulu, in Hawai‘i nei. |
