Moana
Make way, make way
Moana, it's time you knew
The village of Motunui is all you needThe dancers are practicing
They dance to an ancient song
(Who needs a new song? This old one's all we need)This tradition is our mission
And Moana, there's so much to do
Don't trip on the taro root
That's all you needWe share everything we make
We joke and we weave our baskets
The fishermen come back from the sea
I wanna seeDon't walk away
Moana, stay on the ground now
Our people will need a chief
And there you are
There comes a day
When you're gonna look around
And realize happiness is where you areConsider the coconut
(The what?)
Consider its tree
We use each part of the coconut
That's all we needWe make our nets from the fibers
The water's sweet inside
We use the leaves to build fires
We cook up the meat inside
Consider the coconuts
The trunks and the leaves
The island gives us what we needAnd no one leavesThat's right, we stay
We're safe and we're well provided
And when we look to the future
There you areYou'll be okay
In time you'll learn just as I did
You must find happiness right where you areI like to dance with the water
The undertow and the waves
The water is mischievous, ha!
I like how it misbehavesThe village may think I'm crazy
Or say that I drift too far
But once you know what you like
Well there you areYou are your father's daughter
Stubbornness and pride
Mind what he says but remember
You may hear a voice inside
And if the voice starts to whisper
To follow the farthest star
Moana, that voice inside is who you areWe weave our nets from the fibers
And we'll taste the sweet inside
We sing these songs in our choirs
We have mouths to feed insideThe village believes in us
The village believes
The island gives us what we need
And no one leavesSo here I'll stay
My home, my people beside me
And when I think of tomorrow
There we areI'll lead the way
I'll have my people to guide me
We'll build our future together
Where we are
'Cause every path leads you back to
Where you are
You can find happiness right-
Where you are
Where you are
