C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
A long long time ago there was a volcano living all alone in the middle of the sea
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
He sat high above his bay watching all the couples play and wishing that he had someone too
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
And from his lava came this song of hope that he sang out loud every day for years and years
CHORUS
F F C C G7 G7
I have a dream I hope it will come true that you're here with me
C C
and I’m here with you
G7
F F C C F G7 C C
I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above will send me someone to lava
VERSE 2
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
Years of singing all alone turned his lava into stone until he was on the brink of extinction
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
But little did he know that living in the sea below another volcano was listening to his song
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
Everyday she heard his tune her lava grew and grew because she believed his song was meant for her
C C G7 G7 F F C
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea as he sang his song of hope for the last time

REPEAT CHORUS + ADD C C
VERSE 3
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano looking all around but she could not see him
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone but with no lava, his song was all gone
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
He filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear as she remembered what his song meant to her
VERSE 4
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
Oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea all together now their lava grew and grew
C C G7 G7 F F C G7 G7
No longer are they all alone with Aloha as their new home and when you visit them this is what they sing
