DOLLY PARTON - Islands In The Stream lyrics

rate me

Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown

I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb

I was soft inside, there was somethin' going on

You do something to me that I can't explain

Hold me closer and I feel no pain

Every beat of my heart

We got somethin' goin' on

Tender love is blind

It requires a dedication

All this love we feel

Needs no conversation

We ride it together, ah-ah

Makin' love with each other, ah-ah

Chorus:

Islands in the stream

That is what we are

No one in-between

How can we be wrong

Sail away with me to another world

And we rely on each other, ah-ah

From one lover to another, ah-ah

I can't live without you if the love was gone

Everything is nothin' if you got no one

And you did walk in tonight

Slowly loosen' sight of the real thing

But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt

Too deep in love and we got no way out

And the message is clear

This could be the year for the real thing

No more will you cry

Baby, I will hurt you never

We start and end as one, in love forever

We can ride it together, ah-ah

Makin' love with each other, ah-ah

Repeat chorus Tag:

Sail away

Oh, come sail away with me

Repeat chorus Fade:

Repeat chorus
