Grey clouds gathering, raindrops pattering
Blue skies hidden from my view
How I miss them too, today
Grey clouds pass from view
Sun comes peeping through
Rainbow in the western sky
Can you wonder why I say
Hawaiian rainbow mine
I see the lovelight shine
Across the saphire sea
It seems you're calling me
Come back where sunbeams play
Come back where palm trees sway
And where the moonlight's bright as day
It seems I hear again, Aloha's sweet refrain
You sang to me the day I sailed so far away
My pearl of rarest hue, my promise true
Hawaiian rainbow, I am coming back to you
Honolulu bay, you're so far away
West wind whispering to me
Someone waits at Waikiki
Waiting day by day, til you sail away
East wind, blow across the sea
Tell her tenderly for me
Hawaiian rainbow mine
I see the lovelight shine
Across the saphire sea
It seems you're calling me
Come back where sunbeams play
Come back where palm trees sway
And where the moonlight's bright as day
It seems I hear again, Aloha's sweet refrain
You sang to me the day I sailed so far away
My pearl of rarest hue, my promise true
Hawaiian rainbow, I am coming back to you
Mahalo to Larry W. Jones for the lyrics and sheet music image for this song.
