Across the sea as evening falls
The surf is booming on the sand at Waikīkī tonight
And how I wish that you were
Strolling hand in hand with me tonight
Hawaiʻi calls, with a message of aloha
To you sweetheart where 'er you are
Reminding you to dream awhile
Of happy days we knew
Hawaiʻi calls and my heart's calling too
