THE KAUAI WALTZ 
 
   WITH A LEI OF MOKIHANA 
   AND MAILE LEAVES SO GREEN 
   I FIRST SAW HER DANCING 
   AT THE BALL A BEAUTIFUL QUEEN. 

   I KNEW SHE WAS FROM KAUAI
   HER PURPLE GOWN TOLD ME SO 
   I ASKED HER TO DANCE, 
   SHE SMILED WITH A GLANCE 
   AS THEY PLAY THE KAUAI WALTZ. 

   KAUAI WALTZ, KAUAI WALTZ 
   THE MUSIC PLAYED ON AND ON 
   KAUAI WALTZ, KAUAI WALTZ 
   BUT I KNEW THAT SOON SHE'D BE GONE. 

   THE HOLOKU BALL WAS OVER  
   AND WE HAD TO SAY GOODBYE 
   BUT I'LL BE LOOKING FOR HER 
   WHEN THEY PLAY THE KAUAI WALTZ.
