Chorus 1:

Tahiti, I have loved your sunny rain and your rainbows.
Tahiti, all your flowers sweet and cool when the rain goes;
And the hum of happy people on the island,
And the drumming of the seas upon the reef.
Tahiti, Tahiti, Tahiti.
Where the mountains reach up high to touch the heavens,
And the heavens wander low to kiss the sea.
Chorus 2:

Tahiti, I have loved your sunny rain and your rainbows.
Tahiti, all your flowers sweet and cool when the rain goes;
And the hum of happy people on the island,
And the drumming of the seas upon the reef.
Tahiti, Tahiti, Tahiti.
Where the mountains reach up high to touch the heavens,
And the heavens wander low to kiss the sea;
Tahiti, you're all this to me.
