It is time to say goodbye, dear
Dry your tears and don't you cry
Take this flowered lei and while we're apart
Keep wearing it around your heart
For you a lei of flowers rare
For you a lei to hold and wear
For you a lei to caress while you are away
And thru each lonely day make you happy and gay
A lei of love I give to you
To think of me when you are blue
Wherever you may be, over land or on the sea
For you a lei to remember me.
