There's a faraway Island neath the silvery moonlight   Just a paradise of dreams across the sea   There's a maiden all alone and still waitin'   On that old Hawaiian shore for me      The tears they were falling and the nightbirds were calling   As the breeze that night waved through the air so free   The palmtrees were swaying south guitars were playing   Aloha where I dwell to be   [ steel ]   Happy lovers were strolling lazy waters were rolling   As my ship had sailed a drifted out to sea   The moon seemed to wonder as he watched from up yonder   When my darling waved the last goodbye to me      When the shadows of twilight play with gold of the sunset   I'll be heading for that Isle where dreams come true   Mid that tropical splendor my heart will surrender   On that old Hawaiian shore with you   The tears they were falling...
