Ka-Lu-A 1921 Good Morning Dearie

Where the feathered palm trees lightly sway,
high above the blue Hawaiian bay;
set in opal, rose and pearl,
are my mem'ries of a girl;
could I send a message to her I'd say:

When it's moonlight in KaLuA,
night like this is divine:
It was moonlight in KaLuA
when your kisses met mine:
Although the rose and jasmine bloom as fair,
and love is calling through the scented air,
ev'rywhere:
It is lonely in KaLuA
because you are not there.

When it's moonlight in KaLuA,
night like this is divine:
It was moonlight in KaLuA
when your kisses met mine:
Although the rose and jasmine bloom as fair,
and love is calling through the scented air,
ev'rywhere:
It is lonely in KaLuA
because you are not there.

Shadows fall from ev'ry haunted pine,
where the moonrays on the water shine;
There's a road of spangled blue,
that would lead me straight to you;
Could I only follow the silver line:

When it's moonlight in KaLuA,
night like this is divine:
It was moonlight in KaLuA
when your kisses met mine:
Although the rose and jasmine bloom as fair,
and love is calling through the scented air,
ev'rywhere:
It is lonely in KaLuA
because you are not there.

When it's moonlight in KaLuA,
night like this is divine:
It was moonlight in KaLuA
when your kisses met mine:
Although the rose and jasmine bloom as fair,
and love is calling through the scented air,
ev'rywhere:
It is lonely in KaLuA
because you are not there.
