A bird is flying over with a message for his love The life they lead will grow indeed But no bird is a dove He sat her down and told her, what was on his mind that day Flying south was good enough In fact he'd like to stay Paradise was waiting and he knew they had to go He'd hope that she come with him And he'd hope they take it slow In a flash they packed a bag, and left their home behind They spread their wings and caught a breeze And set out for the islands Humuhumunukunukuapua'a in front of me And you can see that I believe That I have set us free
Two birds are flying over, with the ocean down below Another world beneath them Was a world she'd like to show When they arrived he noticed other birds were diving fast He made a note and flapped his wings And other birds they pa**ed He wondered why they're diving in an ordinary bay But he knew this wasn't diving in an ordinary way He took a breath and dipped his nose and headed for the sea What he did not know was that this dive would set him free Humuhumunukunukuapua'a in front of me And you can see that I believe That I have set us free
