Coconut Palm Heart

Intro

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Chorus

My heart's a coconut palm leaning toward your sun

The tide wrote your name in the sand when the morning come

And the trade winds whisper nothing but your song

Every coral reef is singing where we belong

Post-Chorus

Oh, the ocean knows

Oh, the ocean knows

Verse 1

That old taro root dug deep in the ground

Said you planted something I can't pull out now

The surfboard leaned against the wall all night

Told the moon we danced till the morning light

Pre-Chorus

And the hibiscus in my hair keeps turning red

Every time you look at me and that's what she said

Chorus

My heart's a coconut palm leaning toward your sun

The tide wrote your name in the sand when the morning come

And the trade winds whisper nothing but your song

Every coral reef is singing where we belong

Post-Chorus

Oh, the ocean knows

Oh, the ocean knows

Verse 2

The outrigger canoe asked me where I've been

Said I've been losing myself in your skin

The fire pit cracked and popped and laughed

Said we burn brighter than the other half

Pre-Chorus

And the sandy doormat spelled it out for me

"Welcome home" in woven palm fronds, can't you see

Chorus

My heart's a coconut palm leaning toward your sun

The tide wrote your name in the sand when the morning come

And the trade winds whisper nothing but your song

Every coral reef is singing where we belong

Bridge

The stars got tangled in the fishing net

Pulled up wishes that I haven't found yet

But the volcano deep below the sea

Says what's sleeping still is waking up for me

Chorus

My heart's a coconut palm leaning toward your sun

The tide wrote your name in the sand when the morning come

And the trade winds whisper nothing but your song

Every coral reef is singing where we belong

Post-Chorus

Oh, the ocean knows

Oh, the ocean knows
