Richard Rodgers
Bali Ha’i
Most people live on a lonely island
Lost in the middle of a foggy sea
Most people long for another island
One where they know they would like to be
Bali Ha'i may call you
Any night, any day
In your heart you'll hear it call you
Come away, come away
Bali Ha'i will whisper on the wind of the sea
Here am I, your special island
Come to me, come to me
Your own special hopes
Your own special dreams
Loom on the hillside and shine in the Streams
If you try, you will find me
Where the sky meets the sea
Here am I your special island
Come to me, come to me
Bali Ha'i, Bali Ha'i, Bali Ha'i
Some day you'll see me
Floating in the sunshine
My head sticking out from a low flying Cloud
You'll hear me call you
Singing through the sunshine
Sweet and near as can be
Come to me, here am I
Come to me
Try, you'll find me
Where the sky meets the sea
Hear am I, your special island
Come to me, come to me
Bali Ha'i, Bali Ha'i, Bali Ha'i
