Lyrics
Verse 1
Salt wind carries down the island road
Old man hums a tune I used to know
Hands like driftwood steady on the tide
Smile that hides the storms he rowed inside
Pre-Chorus
When the sky turns gray and the waves get rough
His voice cuts through
When I lose my way I just call his name
He pulls me through
Chorus
Alofa of a father
Deep as the ocean floor
Alofa of a father
Waves that always find the shore
Aloha in his laughter
Warm like the morning sun
Alofa of a father
Second to none
Verse 2
Every scar he carries tells a story
Every prayer he whispers for my glory
Woke up in the night and heard him praying
Gave me all he had and kept on staying
Pre-Chorus
When the sky turns gray and the waves get rough
His voice cuts through
When I lose my way I just call his name
He pulls me through
Chorus
Alofa of a father
Deep as the ocean floor
Alofa of a father
Waves that always find the shore
Aloha in his laughter
Warm like the morning sun
Alofa of a father
Second to none
Bridge
One day I'll stand where he stood tall
Pass the love he gave to one and all
Roots run deep where the mango trees grow
That's the only way a man can know
Chorus
Alofa of a father
Deep as the ocean floor
Alofa of a father
Waves that always find the shore
Aloha in his laughter
Warm like the morning sun
Alofa of a father
Second to none
