Hawaiian Heart

Doesn't matter if you're living on the mainland
Or if even further you happen to roam
If you find yourself in some distant and strange land
Your Hawaiian heart will always lead you home

From the moment when you first see your 'ohana
When you kick your slippahs off outside their door
When you're fed fried rice and laulau by your mama
Plate after plate till you can't eat no more

Then you'll know why honu always finds his way there
And why humuhumu's much too smart to roam
And it's easier to see the more you stay there
Your Hawaiian heart will always lead you home

Maybe you left to find adventure
Or just ran away from home
So you've been so far away a long long time
But now koa 'e 'ula tells you
What you always should have know
Friend your heart beats to the Pahu just like mine

We don't care how long it's been we're glad to see ya
Pehea 'oe? He aha ka mea hou
A breeze waves the palm trees so they can greet ya
Your Hawaiian heart will always lead you home

Maybe you left to find adventure
Or just ran away from home
So you've been so far away a long, long time
But now koa 'e 'ula tells you
What you always should have know
Friend your heart beats to the Pahu just like mine

If you can't bring yourself to sing or dance the hula
'cause a local boy broke your Hawaiian heart
Well then you don't have to see that kanaka do ya
Wahine there's no need to fall apart

When you're feeling disconnected from the 'aina
And when you feel the mana draining from your bones
Then that voyager inside is gunna find ya
Your Hawaiian Heart, will always lead you home
Oh! Your Hawaiian Heart
Will always lead you home
Home
