Lyrics
I'll always remember the start of september
and the rainy day that it ended
I hope this reminds you of oahu
chillin' under a palm tree, ohana just me and my family
The way that you'd sing along
to all of our favorite songs
Helped keep the peace between me and your mom
We did everything for you
We'd do anything for you Sweetheart
CHORUS:
When I dance i'll dance for you
When I drink I'll drink to you
Sweetheart
When I sing I'll sing to you
If i sleep i'll dream of you
Sweetheart
Verse:
You can't count the sands of time
I just wish I could give you mine
But yours slipped away and we froze inside
I scream out at night now
trying to reach you somehow
I hope you're somewhere out there, up above the clouds
