Flower Leis Yellow, white and purple strands Woven like the many days And countless ways We held our hands Here we are Standing at an airport gate All those wishes on a star That missed so far Will have to wait Going like an ebb tide flowing Like a trade-wind blowing Soon you will be far across the sea Flying soon you will be flying Like a teardrop drying Leaving just a memory Misty eyes Looking many miles away No times left to analyze Apologize No more to say Stay a while Linger just a minute more Let me see that winning style That little smile you always wore Going like an ebb tide flowing Like a trade-wind blowing Soon you will be far across the sea Flying soon you will be flying Like a teardrop drying Leaving just a memory Flying soon you will be flying Like a teardrop drying Leaving just a memory Ahhh, ahhh.
