lanikai moon

lovers will wander under the cover of night
gather up all the starlight
heard in a whisper, music will play on the sea
and collect at their feet
and they look to the sky
discover what I one knew
in my dreams of you
I'll be seeing a Lanikai Moon

you held out your hand and I followed you down
to the shore, never been there before
a luminous light had set all the mountains aglow
and I just didn't know
the beauty I would long
to come back to
in my dreams of you
I'll be seeing a Lanikai Moon

I close my eyes and steal another moment from memory
and all I see is a vision there of you
take me where the nightbird flies and tell her
that I'll be home, I'm coming soon
I'll be seeing your Lanikai Moon

you send me a letter and fill it with moments of home
all the love that we'd known
you draw me a picture of moonlight that falls from the sky
and I promise to try
to let my love reach over the ocean blue
in my dreams of you
I'll be seeing a Lanikai Moon
