C
A long, long time ago
G
there was a volcano
F C G
living all alone in the middle of the sea.
C
He sat high above his bay
G
Watching all the couples play
F C G
And wishing that he had someone too.
C
And from his lava came
G
this song of hope that he sang
F C G
out loud every day for years and years.
F C
I have a dream; I hope it will come true
G C
that you’re here with me, and I am here with you
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above,
F G C
will send me someone to lava.
F G7 C
C
Year of singing all alone
G
turned his lava into stone
F C G
until he was on the brink of extinction
C
But little did he know
G F
that living in the sea below another volcano
C G
was listening to his song.
C
Everyday she heard his tune
G
her lava grew and grew
F C G
because she believed the song was meant for her.
C G
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea
F
As he sang his song of hope
C G
for the last time.
F C
I have a dream; I hope it will come true
G C
that you’re here with me, and I am here with you
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above,
F G C
will send me someone to lava.
C
Rising from the sea below
G F
stood a lovely volcano looking all around
C G
but she could not see him.
C
He tried to sing to let her know
G
that she was not there alone
F C G
but with no lava, his song was so gone.
C
He filled the sea with his tears
G
and watched his dreams disappear
F C G7
as she remembered what the song meant to her.
F C
I have a dream; I hope it will come true
G C
that you’re here with me, and I am here with you
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above,
F G C
will send me someone to lava.
C
C
Oh, they were so happy
G
to finally meet above the sea
F C G
all together now, their lava grew and grew
C
No longer are they alone
G
with aloha as their new home
F C G
and when you visit them, this is what they sing.
F C
I have a dream; I hope it will come true
G C
now you’d go all with me, and I’d go all with you
G C
We thank the earth, sea, the sky we’ve been too
F G C
I lava you…
F G C
I lava you…
F G C
I lava you…
Song from Pixar’s short film called “Lava”
