[ "Islands in the Stream" plays ]
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 something 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 something going on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel
needs no conversation
We ride it together
Ah ha
Making love with each other
Ah ha
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 ha
From one lover to another
Ah ha
Take it, Dolly.
I can't live without you
If the love was gone
Everything is nothing
if you got no one
And you just walk
in the night
Slowly losing 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 ha
Making love with each other
Ah ha
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 ha
From one lover to another
Ah ha
[ Cheers and applause ]
Dolly.
