One Foot On Sand

One Foot On Sand - Justin Young

E hawaii e motu he kanaka

He kanaka hawaii e

Ano ae me ke aloha nui e hawaii

Aloha no e kuu one hanau e

Aloha e aloha e aloha e

On my own on the wind

A moment ends and one begins

Sense of freedom over the sea

But i watch my home get further from me

Sometimes i reach to meet the clouds

But i always keep one foot on ground

My horizon widen me

Nights are cold here sometimes lonely

My eyes are open so much to see

Sometimes they long for familiarity

And away on distant land

I always keep one foot on sand

Oh

Ano ae me ke aloha nui e hawaii

Aloha no e kuu one hanau e hanau e

Ano ae me ke aloha nui e hawaii

Aloha no e kuu one hanau e hanau e

He motu he kanaka he motu he kanaka hawaii e aloha e

He motu he kanaka he motu he kanaka hawaii e

Holidays bring me home

My appreciation has grown

Warmer water smaller pond

But some things here circle on

Sometimes i reach to meet the clouds

But i always keep one foot on ground

Yeah yeah

And away on distant land

I always keep one foot on sand

He motu he kanaka he motu he kanaka hawaii e

He motu he kanaka he motu he kanaka hawaii e

He motu he kanaka he motu he kanaka hawaii e

He motu he kanaka he motu he kanaka hawaii e

Ano ae me ke aloha nui e hawaii

Aloha no e kuu one hanau e

Aloha e aloha e aloha e
