Lyrics

She walks in the room
Barefoot, long hair eyes of blue
A beauiful girl
And her name is Hanalei

A typical day
Waves are breaking across the bay
Her feet in the sand
Yeah this girl is hear to stay
And it feels good.....
Well it should...

It could'nt last
I had my chance
She turned and laughed
Cause all that she needs is the wind in her hair
and the surf six feet
Cause it feels good
Yes it's good
She's a girl named Hanalei

She's got reasons, she's got waves
She's got reef cuts on her legs
And you'll see right through that
sunburn on her face

The beautiful sound
of white rain crashing all around
You might see her in town
She's a girl named Hanalei
And she's good
Oh she's good
Yes it's good...Oh yeah
When you live in hanalei
