Lyrics & Chords
Full Song
Verse 1
CG
A long long time ago
F
There was a volcano
GCG
Living all alone in the middle of the sea
CG
He sat high above his bay
F
Watching all the couples play
GC
And wishing that he had someone too
G
And from his lava came
Chorus
FG
This song of hope that he sang out loud
CG
Every day for years and years
FG
I have a dream I hope will come true
CGFG
That you’ll be here with me, and I’ll be here with you
CG
I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a
FG
Will send me someone to lava
Verse 2
CG
Years of singing all alone
F
Turned his molten rock to stone
GC
He thought he would always be on his own
GC
But then one day through the fog
GF
He saw a lovely lava log
GC
And rolling out to say hello was she
G
And from her lava came
Chorus
FG
This song of hope that she sang out loud
CG
Every day for years and years
FG
I have a dream I hope will come true
CGFG
That you’ll be here with me, and I’ll be here with you
CG
I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a
FG
Will send me someone to lava
Bridge
CGF
They were so happy to finally meet above the sea
GCG
All together now their lava grew and grew
FG
No longer all alone
CGF
With a loving glance they started to dance
G
And sway
Chorus
FG
This song of hope that they sang out loud
CG
Every day for years and years
FG
I have a dream I hope will come true
CGFG
That you’ll be here with me, and I’ll be here with you
CG
I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a
FG
Will send me someone to lava
CG
I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a
FG
Will send me someone to lava
