"I saw you in my dreams, We were walking hand in hand. On a white, sandy beach of Hawaii. We were playing in the sun. We were having so much fun. On a white, sandy beach of Hawaii. The sound of the ocean. Soothes my restless soul. The sound of the ocean. Rocks me all night long..."

How would they feel about the changes of our land. Could you just imagine if they were around. And saw highways on their sacred grounds. How would they feel about this modern city life.

Somewhere over the rainbow, Bluebirds fly, And the dreams that you dare to..."
