[Verse 1] Back home, it’s heat on heat Sidewalk burning my feet Threw my flip-flops in the bag One-way ticket, no looking back Palm shade, cool drink in hand Trade winds rolling off the sand You laugh and say, “Come on in” One cool wave and I’m grinnin’ [Pre-Chorus] Let the whole world slow Feel that cool tide roll You and me, waist deep now Nothing else matters now [Chorus] Hawaii, take me there Salt in my hair Hawaii, take me there Cool breeze in the air Leave that heat behind Let the trade winds clear my mind Hawaii, take me there Salt in my hair [Verse 2] Footprints running down the sand Cool waves rolling where we stand Coconut cracked open wide Sweet breeze coming with the tide We race the shore, then fall Laughing like we own it all Back home, let the mercury climb We got ocean, we got time [Pre-Chorus] Let the whole world slow Feel that cool tide roll You and me, waist deep now Nothing else matters now [Chorus] Hawaii, take me there Salt in my hair Hawaii, take me there Cool breeze in the air Leave that heat behind Let the trade winds clear my mind Hawaii, take me there Salt in my hair [Bridge] Golden sun, blue water Plumeria in your hair Sunset on the ocean Trade winds everywhere One more dive One more ride Don’t make me Leave this isle [Final Chorus] Hawaii, keep me here Cool water, sky so clear Hawaii, keep me here Best time of the year Let the whole world bake We’ll be riding one more wave Hawaii, keep me here Cool water, sky so clear [Outro] Let the mainland melt We’re cool by the sea Hawaii, keep me here Just you and me
