Happy Hawaii Lyrics
Early this morning I drove in the rain
Out to the airport to get on the plane
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
Alice has been there, she said it was fun
Swimming and surfing, enjoying the sun
Hey Honololu, we're going to happy Hawaii
After all I've had to go through
I'm making no plans (making no plans oh-ooh)
But I, but I believe love gives me a second chance
Guess I've been working a little too hard
Need a vacation, I'll send you a card
From Honolulu, a greeting from happy Hawaii
It's so exciting, why should I pretend
In a few hours the plane will descend
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
I can imagine the beach and the sand
Walking with someone and holding his hand
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
After all I've had to go through
I'm making no plans (making no plans oh-ooh)
But I, but I believe love gives me a second chance, mmm
I've got a feeling the dream will come true
Somebody's waiting and I'll forget you
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
Out to the airport to get on the plane
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
Alice has been there, she said it was fun
Swimming and surfing, enjoying the sun
Hey Honololu, we're going to happy Hawaii
I'm making no plans (making no plans oh-ooh)
But I, but I believe love gives me a second chance
Need a vacation, I'll send you a card
From Honolulu, a greeting from happy Hawaii
In a few hours the plane will descend
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
I can imagine the beach and the sand
Walking with someone and holding his hand
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
I'm making no plans (making no plans oh-ooh)
But I, but I believe love gives me a second chance, mmm
Somebody's waiting and I'll forget you
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii

I think this song is about a girl who works hard..etc..and I presume has broken up with some guy (...And I'll forget you...) and has gone with her friend (As she say 'We're' rather than 'I'm' although this could mean the whole plane...But I think she has gone with Alice who has been before) to Hawaii to forget things and have a break from everday life...as well as possibly meet someone new.
Great song.
I think your meaning to this song is perfect. I think she is going with Alice to find that second chance at love.
It isn't just me, this is very much like "Why did it have to be me?" isn't it? I quite like it though despite the fact Abba actually ripped themselves off.
There IS a reason why the two songs sound similar.......... they are basically the same song with different lyrics and some minor changes. Actually, "Happy Hawaii" is an earlier version of "Why Did It Have To Be Me". The impression I got is that at the time they weren't satisfied with what they had so they rewrote it and it was released first as "Why Did It Have To Be Me". Later on, "Happy Hawaii" was relased as the B-side to one of their singles.
