LP:
Far across the sea, In old Waikiki
Palm trees sway while breezes play the sweetest melody
Once again I long, just to hear the song
That in memory still clings to me
Sweet chimes of old Hawaii
So tenderly calling to me over the sea
My land of heart's desire
Oh, how I sigh for those Hawaiian chimes
Chimes
So tenderly, calling to me, over the sea
Oh, how I sigh for those Hawaiian chimes
How my thoughts will stray
Take me far away
To the shore that I long for beside old Hilo Bay
There beneath the moon, I first heard that tune
And in all my dreams I hear, it seems
Sweet chimes of old Hawaii
So tenderly calling to me over the sea
My land of heart's desire
Oh, how I sigh for those Hawaiian chimes
Chimes
So tenderly, calling to me, over the sea
Oh, how I sigh for those Hawaiian chimes
Mahalo to Larry W. Jones for contributing the lyrics and sheet music image for this classic song.
