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 sand
Watched the flowing sunset hand in hand
Felt the tradewinds caress

Bridge:
And though I went away
My heart stayed on
Will she be waiting for?
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 Hawai`i nei
