A long, long time a go, that liv there was a vol ca no
an liv ing all a lone in the mid dle of the sea.
He sat high a bove his bay, watch ing all the cou ples play be cause and wish ing that he had some one, too.
And from his la va came this song of hope that he sang out he loud his ev ’ry day for years and years.
“I have a dream
I hope will come true,
that you’re here with me
and I’m here with you.
I wish that the earth, sea and the sky up a bove a will send
me some one to la va.”
Years of sing ing all a lone turned his la va in to stone, un til
he was on the brink of ex tinc tion.

The song is in the key of C at 150 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
