Sweet and sour like a lilikoi oh my joy
Like smoke rising from the fire taking me higher
I'll never love again
The way that i loved you my friend
I know I put it all on you
Let your thoughts determine how i feel about me too
But now i lnow i must be one within
Before i create my own kin
I must be strong I must rely on the father
An independent daughter needs a strong courageous mother
Oh and now i know
i see the light it's clear to me now
oh and now i know
(chorus)
Ina mamake au e hopu i ka i'a
Pono e malama i ka lo'i
E piha ana i ka loko i'a
Hiki no ke koho me ke pono
oh and now i know
I see the light its clear to me now
Oh i maopopo
(whistling solo)
(chorus)
