They Say Lucky You Live Hawai`i - Words & music by Jonny Kamai

 
As the cool wind blows in my face
I feel the warmth of the Islands
It's like a summer breeze
The sky is blue, the sun shines through
The hand of God is upon you
 
 
Chorus 1:
They say lucky you live Hawai`i
Share the love of the island people
Lucky you live Hawaii
I'll take the love and put it in your hand
 
 
You can go down to the seashore
And touch the water full of life
See the children running
Breathe the air, take it in
Touch your face and feel your skin
The hand of God is upon you
 
 
Chorus 2:
They say lucky you live Hawai`i
Share the love of the island people
Lucky you live Hawai`i
Learn the meaning of Aloha
 

Lucky you live Hawai`i
