Dolly Parton And Kenny Rogers Islands In The Stream Lyrics

Islands In The Stream Lyrics

Baby, when I met you there was peace on earth

 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
