[Verse 1]
She owns a window to the ocean, she has a pipeline to the sky
But earthly creatures rarely notice when guardian angels pass them by
Like a gecko behind a painting with hidden wisdom to impart
In a world that needs more dancing, she's a hula girl at heart

[Chorus 1]
Photographs show she is lovely
Her bare feet are a work of art
Her fragrance speaks of frangipani
Yes, she's still a hula girl at heart

[Verse 2]
With her pad and watercolors, drawing fish and butterflies
Children always seem to conjure images they recognize
In the land beside the ocean, where romantics seem to dwell
Destiny can set in motion ripples that turn into swells

[Chorus 2]
She knows how to face the music
She knows where the magic starts
In a world that needs more dancing
She's still a hula girl at heart

[Bridge]
Songs sing slow
Days zoom by
Time can't keep her
Nor can I
[Verse 3]
She has worn a wealth of costumes, hula skirt to wedding gown
Lived in cities, walked through jungles, always sees the sun go down
In this age of teeming tourists, fellow travelers know her well
The darling of deserted beaches hides her wisdoms in a shell

[Chorus 3]
Her sensual and easy motion
Seems impossible to chart
In a world that needs more dancing
She's still a hula girl at heart
