Honolulu I Am Coming Back Again
Words by F. B. Silverwood Music by David Lindeman. Copyright 1922 F.B. Silverwood. Andy Cummings made this memorable recording in the late 1950s of the 1922 composition. It was later covered in the early 1970s by The Sunday Manoa. Although the original song included 4 verses, only the 2 stanzas of the chorus was recorded by both Andy Cummings & The Sunday Manoa.
Chorus:
I seem to hear the Pali calling me
I seem to hear the surf at Waikiki
And from Pacific Heights
I seem to see the lights
Of a city that is very dear to me
I seem to see the waving sugar cane
The coco palms all nodding in the rain
In fancy I am led
Back to dear old Diamond Head
Honolulu, I am coming back again
Honolulu, I am coming back again.
