Lyrics
When the big swell crashes in, I bid you aloha again…
Kanikapila in the old Hawaiian way…
With my family and ukulele…
Today is the brightest day…
Three words I remember, they may shine down from the sun…
Have you ever wondered if the world needs a little hope, peace, or love?
When the big swell crashes in, I bid you aloha again…
Kanikapila in the old Hawaiian way…
With my family and ukulele…
Today is the brightest day…
Colors in the rainbow, reflections in the light…
In the spirit of the Bredda man, be acceptable in thy sight…
When the big swell crashes in, I bid you aloha again…
Kanikapila in the old Hawaiian way…
With my family and ukulele…
Today is the brightest day…
Oh, today is the brightest day…
