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
