There's a place I recall  Not too big, in fact it's kinda small  The people there know they got it all   The simple life for me  Hele on to Kauai  Hanalei by the bay  Wailua river valley is where I used to play  The canyons of Waimea standing all aglow  The magic of the garden isle is calling me back home  When I was young, not too smart  I left my home, looking for a brand new start  To find a place that's better still  Now I know, I know I never will  Hele on to Kauai  Hanalei by the bay  Wailua river valley is where I used to play  The canyons of Waimea standing all aglow  The magic of the garden isle is calling me back home  Hele on to Kauai  Hanalei by the bay  Wailua river valley is where I used to play  The canyons of Waimea standing all aglow  The magic of the garden isle is calling me back home  It's calling me back home
