Lava Song from Lava Movie Opening Inside Out

After "Love is an Open Door" song from Frozen (link), this "Lava" song become my next favourite lovable song from animation movie. This song become original soundtrack for movie which have the same title as the song, "Lava". "Lava" is the short opening movie for Pixar's 3D Inside Out.

Uku, the mountain who dreamed about another mountain 
to be in lava with him 

You will enjoy the song more if you can watch the movie too. The movie have unique plot about a mountain who wish he had another mountain to be in lava with him. Well, you realize the creator using a pun because they use lava instead of love, because the main character is a mountain, haha. But still, they are making this movie so good making me teared up watching it :')

You can read more the backstory about the song and movie in here (link).

Well, let's sing this song together! :))



Lava

Performed by Kuana Torres Kahele and Napua Greg (vocal), James Ford Murphy (ukulele)

A long, long time ago 
There was a volcano 
Living all alone, in the middle of the sea 

He sat high above his bay 
Watching all the couples play 
And wishing that, he had someone too 

And from his lava came, this song of hope, that he sang out loud 
Everyday, 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, the sky up above 
Will send me someone to lava 
  
Years of singing all alone, turned his lava into stone 
Until, he was on the brink of extinction 
But little did he know, that living in the sea below 
Another volcano was listening to his song 
  
Everyday she heard his tune, her lava grew and grew 
Because, she believed, his song was meant for her 
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea 
As he sang his song of hope for the last time 

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, the sky up above 
Will send me someone to lava 

Rising from the sea below, stood a lovely volcano 
Looking all around but she could not see him 
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not, there alone 
But with no lava his song was so gone 

He filled the sea, with his tears and watched his dreams, disappear 
As she, remembered what his song meant to her 

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, the sky up above 
Will send me someone to lava 

Oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea 
All together now, their lava grew and grew 
The longer are they all alone, with aloha as their new home 
And when you visit them, this is what they sing 

I have a dream, I hope will come true 
That you'll grow old with me, and I'll grow old with you 
We thank the earth, sea, the sky we've been to 
I lava you I lava you I lava you
