My dreams fill with the sound of the ocean Hawai’i is calling Come to me gently Rest here beside me for a while It’s there, in the air, can you feel it? Hawai’i is calling Come to me gently The wind stirs in the trees Yes, it’s there, in the sound of the rainbow, Hawai’i is calling Come to me gently Come inside of me Come to me gently Hawai’i is calling They finish with lyrics from Olomana’s “Remember Be Sure and Be There”....I grew up listening to artists like The Kahuanu Lake Trio, Genoa Keawe, Eddie Kamae, Jerry Santos, the Cazimeros, Makaha Sons. Moved to the Mainland after high school, miss my home and family. So many great memories.
Whenever I hear a Jerry Santos or Olomana song .. really reminds me of being a kid, playing in the streets of homestead in Waimanalo 😢. It was a rough childhood and all I wanted was to leave bc I felt so trapped in struggle after struggle. I have long since moved away and now in my adult years - I find myself longing for my home and music like his makes it more so true.
I so love this song and am grateful to know the story behind it... I was blessed to spend a weekend in Kalaupapa and to meet some of the residents and talk story. It was one of my most memorable and beautiful experiences! 🙏🏼❤️
hoaikane, thanks for posting. I love Jerry's music, it's timeless. And I love this song, as I had a relative that was a resident some time prior to his passing at Kalaupapa. so the music is wonderful. Mahalo
Lovely song so beautiful !!🤙🌈💯
My dreams fill with the sound of the ocean
Hawai’i is calling
Come to me gently
Rest here beside me for a while
It’s there, in the air, can you feel it?
Hawai’i is calling
Come to me gently
The wind stirs in the trees
Yes, it’s there, in the sound of the rainbow,
Hawai’i is calling
Come to me gently
Come inside of me
Come to me gently
Hawai’i is calling

Waimānalo homestead? I was also born and raised there. 41-181 Nakini Street.
Jerry's voice is one of a kind. Maika'i!
