Now it's time to say goodnight
Pretty baby dry your eyes
No need, no need, no need to cry
Aloha lullaby
I'll stay here and say dear, how much I love you
Oh baby I'll tell you baby why, pretty baby why things can be
As we want them, as we dream them, to be
Now it's time to say goodbye
Pretty mama, dry your eyes
I'll kiss and tuck you in tonight
Aloha lullaby
I'll stay here and say dear, how much I love you
Oh mama I'll tell you mama why, pretty mama why things can be
As we want them, as we dream them, to be
Aloha isn't just goodbye, it's hello till the end of time.

Down in the water where the seaweed grows
Lives a little yellow fish with a pig-like nose
Ask his name and he'll tell you, "Brah, it's humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Humuhumunukunukuapua’a
Humuhumunukunukuapua’a
Humuhumunukunukuapua’a
And he swims in the ocean by the aina.
The kama’aina got together long ago
That’s the people of Hawaii, in case you didn’t know
They all sat down at the biggest marae
Because they wanted a state fish, and nobody knows why
Chorus
“I vote ahi!” said the very biggest moke
“I vote mahi mahi,” said the skinniest bloke
“Opakapaka!” suggested a third
But the big chief still hadn’t said a word
(And then the chief said)
Chorus:
Call me lolo, but that’s what I know
Humuhumu earned his title many years ago
Please get comfy, the show starts now
Coz we’re all done singing. In other words, “pau!”
Chorus:
Humuhumunukunukuapua’a
Humuhumunukunukuapua’a
Humuhumunukunukuapua’a
And since he has the notion
To feel himself in motion
He swims in the ocean by the aina.

Ocean hugs the sandy beaches
Just as I hug you
And my heart is full each time I see your smile
Compassion lives within our spirits
Love is everywhere
And aloha means more than hello and goodbye
It means that I love you
It means that you love me to
It means overflow that love to everyone and everything
It means that you love me
And you know I love you too
Spirit of aloha means more than hello and goodbye
When you feel that mana moving
Like the palm trees sway
Simply open up your heart and let it flow
It's all the joy you feel inside
And all the joy you share
'Cause aloha means more than goodbye and hello
It means that I love you
It means that you love me to
It means overflow that love to everyone and everything
It means that you love me
And you know I love you too
Spirit of aloha means more than hello and goodbye
