Sweet Leilani Lyrics

Sweet Leilani lyrics

Sweet Leilani, heavenly flower oh.

I dreamt of paradise for two. ( My
lovely Leilani )

You are my paradise completed. ( My lovely Leilani )

You are my dream come true.

 

Sweet Leilani, heavenly flower
oh,

Tropic skies are jealous while they shine. ( My lovely Leilani )

I think they're jealous of your blue eyes. ( My lovely Leilani )

Jealous because you're mine.

 

I think they're jealous of your
blue eyes. ( My lovely Leilani )

Jealous because you're mine.

 

Sweet Leilani, heavenly flower oh,

Nature's fashion roses kissed with
dew. ( My lovely Leilani )

And then she placed them in a bower. ( My
lovely Leilani )

It was the start of you.

My lovely Lei-lan-i.
