With members still in high school, this young group caught the attention of Go Aloha Entertainment who teamed them with the successful production team of Imua Garza and Brett Ortone (Rebel Souljahz, Opihi Pickers) who soon had them in the recording studio working on a project.
The result is This Is The Life, the band’s debut CD, to be released in September 2009. This Is The Life contains 11 all original songs composed by Kolohe Kai leader Roman De Peralta, influenced by Roman’s family, faith, love of surfing, and love of life.
Kolohe Kai’s music is a breath of fresh air with themes of innocence and youthful enthusiasm, young love and all-around fun.
Kolohe Kai – Roman, Noah, Jasmine, Ryan and Jordan – love making music and it shows during the band’s upbeat live performances, fun for all ages and enjoyed by lovers of all flavors of local music.
Kolohe Kai needs your support so pick up a copy of their new CD (This Is The Life)!

Kolohe Kai Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I often think of you, my darling baby boo
Your always in my head, that's why I can't wait to go to bed
to close my eyes and visualize
you right by my side.
Your my dream girl, living in my dream world
I'm in love with you, please don't wake me up.
Your my dream girl, living in my dream world
We're walking hand in hand in Disneyland
and dinner at the grand canyon, soon we'll be on the moon
that afternoon walking on the sand.
My Hawaiian baby girl, in my dreams your always near.
But in the morning, there's a warning, that you won't be here
Your my dream girl, living in my dream world
I'm in love with you, please don't wake me up.
Your my dream girl, living in my dream world
Im in love with you, please don't wake me up
please don't wake me up.
Oh my girl we can go anywhere
Just say the place and I'll take you there.
Cause in this dream I can be your King, and you my love
you can be my queen…
Your my dream girl, living in my dream world
I'm in love with you, please don't wake me up.
Your my dream girl, living in my dream world
Im in love with you, please don't wake me up
please don't wake me up.
The lyrics to “This Is the Life” by Kolohe Kai speak about a young man who is in love with his dream girl. He thinks about her constantly, especially during his days at school. She’s always in his head and he eagerly anticipates going to bed so he can visualize her next to him. In his dream world, they’re together and happy, walking hand in hand in Disneyland, having dinner at the grand canyon, and even walking on the moon. He sees her as his queen, and he is her king. She represents everything beautiful and perfect in his life, and he hopes to be with her forever. However, in reality, he knows that she’s not really there and he will have to face the morning when he wakes up alone.
The lyrics reflect the powerful and intense feelings of love and desire that many people feel when they fall in love. The young man in the song longs for the perfect partner who will complete him and make his life complete. He dreams of a world where he and his dream girl can go anywhere and be anything they want. The song captures the beauty and magic of falling in love and losing oneself in the dream of the perfect relationship.

Lyrics
The hills make me wanna run and play
Everytime I think of you
And I wanna go up and sit right down
And look at the ocean, so blue
I wanna feel the breeze, blowin' in my face
And let all things hang loose
Whisper your name
Feel no pain
Relax and cruise
This is the life, the life I was given
This is the life, I love country livin'
This is the life
The life meant for me and you
So I hope you get to live it too
Yeah...
And I hope you get to live it too
I wanna get on my bike and ride that red dirt road
From the cane fields to the shore
I wanna skip stones, with my cousins
As the ahi skim the ocean floor
And as the sun goes down
And the moon goes up, I can see the stars (see the stars)
As we sit by that fire beneath our shack
And jam our guitars
This is the life, the life I was given
This is the life, I love country livin'
This is the life
The life meant for me and you
So I hope you get to live it too
Yeah...
And I hope you get to live it too
Take the time, to unwind
And let the island sooth your soul
Feel the music everywhere
And let Aloha take control
'Cause I can see the pain in your eyes
From the pressures of today
Open your eyes, we're in paradise
And throw them all away
This is the life, the life I was given
This is the life, I love country livin'
This is the life
The life meant for me and you
So I hope you get to live it too
Yeah...
And I hope you get to live it too
Yeah...
And I hope you get to live it too
