Lyrics
Move On Hawaii, Move on Me
Emmanuel Lawrence
Copyright 2008
VERSE 1
Islands float on the ocean
Ocean swims under and 'round
People upstairs steady
Building lives, building towns
They don't feel the movement
Of this paradise ground
Islands riding rock roller coaster
Slow motion, northwest bound
CHORUS
Move on Hawaii, move on me
You're a bit of Heaven
Between the land and the sea
I didn't know 'til I saw you
And you made me believe
Move on Hawaii
Move on me
Move, move on me
VERSE 2
I think Heaven is up
North of everywhere
Hawaii seems headed home
Headed right back there
I wouldn't be surprised
If Heaven has blue-green shoals
Flora flourish in red earth
Covering cool lava floes
AMENDED CHORUS & FADEOUT
Move on Hawaii, move on me
You're a bit of Heaven
Between the land and the sea
I didn't know 'til I saw you
And you made me believe
Move on Hawaii
Move on me
Move, move on me
Move on me. Move, move on me
Move, move, move on me
Move, move, move on me
