Koke'e Mist 04:49
Woke up early this morning, sun did greet I with a kiss Get up, let's go now baby, we're heading up the Koke'e Mist The Sun is shining high now, things are starting feel hotta We gonna take the turn up mauka (toward the mountains) To feel that coolin' vapor watta! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist We gonna blaze a nice fiya We gonna play on when the sun goes down Feel the vibrations getting higher Look up baby and watch the universe go 'round! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! We're singin' in the mountains, surrounded by these native trees Ka makani (the wind) sweet sounds, blowin' mystic melodies Na manu (the birds) they are singin', harmonies so pure and true Ka noe (the mist) O Koke'e, keeps me holdin' on to you! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! We gonna blaze a nice fiya We gonna play on when the sun goes down Feel the vibrations getting higher Look up baby and watch the universe go 'round! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! We gonna blaze a nice fiya We gonna play on when the sun goes down Feel the vibrations getting higher Look up baby and watch the universe go 'round! We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! E hele mai I ka noe O Koke'e (Going to the Koke'e mist) We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! E hele mai I ka noe O Koke'e We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist! E hele mai I ka noe O Koke'e We're headin' up to the Koke'e mist!

Ella's Song 05:04
So I hear you're coming soon, and I'm still trying to find the tune In my heart I feel the rhythm and hear the rhyme For inspiration I've got plenty, and this pen is working fine But the time, oh the time keeps flying by Cause I've got ten thousand love songs, to write for you my little girl If I could only find the time Cause I've got so much to do, I've got a world to share with you And so I'll sing you the first one on my mind If I could just slow down this moment, and you could look into my eyes In your reflections where inspiration meets the time And here we are in this moment, and I can look into your eyes Here in the land where inspiration meets the time Cause I've got ten thousand love songs, to write for you my little girl If I could only find the time Cause I've got so much to do, I've got a world to share with you And so I'll sing you the first one on my mind Now here we are some years later, you have sparkled and you still shine And I'm sure you know the reasons why I smile Cause my family keeps these songs comin', while the days keeping passing by Here in the land where inspiration meets the time Cause I've got ten thousand love songs, to write for you my little girl If I could only find the time Cause I've got so much to do, I've got a world to share with you And so I'll sing you the first one on my mind Cause I've got ten thousand love songs Cause I've got ten thousand love songs Cause I've got ten thousand love songs on my mind
