[Intro]
C G7 F C G7
[Verse 1]
C G7
A long long time ago there was a volcano
F C G7
living all alone in the middle of the sea
C G7
He sat high above his bay watching all the couples play
F C G7
and wishing that he had someone too
C G7
And from his lava came this song of hope that he sang
F C G7
out loud every day for years and years
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true
G7 C
that you're here with me and I'm here with you
F C
I wish that the earth sea the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to la-va
[Instrumental]
F G C
[Verse 2]
C G7
Years of singing all alone turned his lava into stone
F C G7
until he was on the brink of extinction
C G7
But little did he know that living in the sea below
F C G7
another volcano was listening to his song
C G7
Every day she heard his tune her lava grew and grew
F C G7
because she believed his song was meant for her
C G7
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea
F C G7
as he sang his song of hope for the last time
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true
G7 C
that you're here with me and I'm here with you
F C
I wish that the earth sea the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to la-va
[Verse 3]
C G7
Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano
F C G7
looking all around but she could not see him
C G7
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone
F C G7
but with no lava his song was all gone
C G7
He filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear
F C G7
as she remembered what his song meant to her
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true
G7 C
that you're here with me and I'm here with you
F C
I wish that the earth sea the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to la-va
[Verse 4]
C G7
Oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea
F C G7
all together now their lava grew and grew
C G7
No longer are they all alone with aloha as their new home
F C G7
and when you visit them this is what they sing
[Chorus 2]
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true
G7 C
that you'll grow old with me and I'll grow old with you
F C
We thank the earth sea the sky we thank too
F G7 C
I lava you
F G7 C
I lava you
F G7 C
I lava you
