(Jimmy Buffett, Peter Mayer, Roger Guth, Will Kimbrough)

|
She owns a window to the ocean
|
She has a pipeline to the sky
|
But earthly creatures rarely notice
|
When Guardian Angels pass them by
|
|
Like a gecko behind a painting
|
With hidden wisdom to impart
|
In a world that needs more dancing
|
She's a hula girl at heart
|
|
Photographs show she is lovely
|
Her bare feet are a work of art
|
Her fragrance speaks of frangipani
|
Yes she's still a hula girl at heart
|
|
With Her pad and watercolors
|
Drawing fish and butterflies
|
Children always seem to conjure
|
Images they recognize
|
In the land beside the ocean
|
Where romantics seem to dwell
|
Destiny can set in motion
|
Ripples that turn into swells
|
She Knows how to face the music
|
She Knows where the magic starts
|
In a world that needs more dancing
|
She's still a hula girl at heart
|
|
Songs sing slow
|
Days zoom by
|
Time can't keep her
|
Nor can I
|
|
She has worn a wealth of costumes
|
Hula skirt to wedding gown
|
Lived in cities walked through jungles
|
Always sees the sun go down
|
|
In this age of teeming tourists
|
Fellow travelers know her well
|
The darling of deserted beaches
|
Hides her wisdom in a shell
|
Her sensual and easy motion
|
Seems impossible to chart
|
In a world that needs more dancing
|
