“Hawaii” is the 9th track of 2016’s Islands' album “Should I Remain Here, At Sea?”. It is a dreamy, heartache covered breakup tune. The speaker is mourning after the end of his long-lived relationship.
I could leave the wave left to the water
Comes along like nothing is the matter
Doesn't make a sound
Till it reaches ground
Girl, you know I plan to be a dreamer
Dream about the way things could've been
The things I could've found
The ways I come around
Oh, oh-oh, oh oh
There I go again, all that ocean
It's just the way in which the tide consumes me
It's when you turn to leave
Refusing to believe
You and I could both breathe underwater
All alone, like nothing is the matter
Do you recall swimming with them all?
Somewhere in Hawaii
