The 6ths - Oahu lyrics

I was the restless kind With a heart inclined to play games of chance Until a dark-eyed girl from another world Led me a dangerous dance On the cliffs of Oahu Oahu Oahu Oahu We became the slaves of the Pacific waves That come hard and slow Sometimes a coral reef shelters a gentle beach But there's an undertow On the shores of Oahu Oahu Oahu Oahu It wasn't meant to be, she had no time for me 'Cause she was writing her novel I'm just a haole now, but I'll go back somehow And I'll stay there forever For the love of Oahu
