Lyrics
Will you follow me
To a passionate dream?
Sometimes they can carry you away!
In it I was tan, an islander man
Native to a land by the bay
Now I must provision my big canoe
Fill it with the passionate fruit
Ride it down the river to the ocean blue
Going where it meets the sun?
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET MY MAKER
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET THE SUN
GONNA AWAKE TO KISS THE RAINBOW
LETTING ME KNOW WHERE I?VE BEGUN
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE!
Always leave my dreams
In a silver canoe
Make it with my hands from the clay
People holding hands in a loving land
Everywhere is joy for the day?
Now I must provision my big canoe
Fill it with the passionate fruit
Ride it down the river to the ocean blue
Going where it meets the sun?
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET MY MAKER
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET THE SUN
GONNA AWAKE TO KISS THE RAINBOW
LETTING ME KNOW WHERE I?VE BEGUN
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE!
(solo)
Dancing in the sun
It?s another day
Seeing everyone having fun?
Tear drops in my eyes as the children play
Waving my goodbyes everyone!
Now I must provision my big canoe
Fill it with the passionate fruit
Ride it down the river to the ocean blue
Going where it meets the sun?
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET MY MAKER
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET THE SUN
GONNA AWAKE TO KISS THE RAINBOW
LETTING ME KNOW WHERE I?VE BEGUN
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE!
Now I must provision my big canoe
Fill it with the passionate fruit
Ride it down the river to the ocean blue
Going where it meets the sun?
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET MY MAKER
GONNA AWAKE TO MEET THE SUN
GONNA AWAKE TO KISS THE RAINBOW
LETTING ME KNOW WHERE I?VE BEGUN
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE
GONNA AWAKE!
