Maui Waltz - Words & music by Bob Nelson

 
I hear the Maui waltz
It brings back memories
I hear the Maui waltz
And you are haunting me

The night you told me
That you loved me so
But no one told me
That when the dance was through
I'd be losing you

I hear the Maui waltz
And my arms are empty now
I hear the Maui waltz
But it doesn't hurt somehow
'Cause you're here with me
When the music starts to play
Play on, play on Maui waltz
 
Lohe au ia Maui waltz
E lawe mai nei a no
Lohe au ia Maui waltz
A puwa `oe ia`u 
 
I ma`i ha lani
Aloha `oe ia`u
`A`ole le pane mai
Ko leo ka hea
Ha`a lele `oe
 
Lehe au ia Maui waltz
Mehameha ku`u pu`uwai
Lohe au ia Maui waltz
`A`ole pa ke `eha
Eha o ka pu`u wai
I kani aka mele
Kani no, kani no Maui waltz
