Hawaii

Verse 1 I Lost you I Miss You My Feet Have No Direction But I’m Stumblin’ Through The life I have to live The smiles I have to give Verse 2 I’m wondering now When my pain will cease The memories just torment me But in slumbers peace, Can I reach you through the shadows? Just to hold you once again Chorus I Dreamt you went away to Hawaii I took a plane to take you back I wish you’d never gone to Hawaii So far away now, so please don’t stay In Hawaii Verse 3 Land through the clouds On a hill by the sea Sits The Mansion Past Gates Adrift Garden Walls Enclosing The Lawn Soiree The Garden People Drinking Smoking No.6 Long Dresses & Bowler Hats In Utter Desperation I stagger Through the Crowd Verse 4 I Hear You Weep At The Bar By the stairs Down to the beach I Run to See Treacle feet Muted Voice I Struggle on The people holding me back Say You Cannot leave I Reach you You’re Lost You’re Scared You Do not recognise me Your Cold-eyed distant stare Chorus They say you cannot leave from Hawaii You’re not allowed to board the plane They say I must not stay in Hawaii My heart is broken, I cannot leave you In Hawaii Interlude I gaze upon you And reflect the Lifetime memories with you Minor Finale You Turn and run Along the path, down to the sea I can’t keep up Sun lights the stepped garden to the beach I’m Losing ground With every step the distance grows I’m screaming Please You’re down the steps to the next level My Sickness grows I’m Crushed by guilt I shouldn’t feel I Can’t Go On I Can’t Go On I Can’t Go On Suddenly You STOP! Major Finale You turned and recognised me Your smile washes over me Like a slow swell in a warming sea I Feel Your Love The sparkle in your eyes dries my tears You remember me now and all the years With happiness on your face now You Move with such grace and you’re younger somehow You carry on down past the next Lawn I stopped now, I Did not follow anymore With every terrace the years flew away Last steps to the beach you catch the suns ray You are young and you’re beautiful By the time you reached the sea You have your whole life to live again I wish it was with me (Whispered)
