(Kenny)

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.

(Both)

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.

(Kenny)

Tender love is blind

It requires a dedication.

(Both)

All this love we feel needs no conversation.

Chorus

We ride it together uh huh

Making love with each other uh huh.

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 uh huh

From one lover to another uh huh.

(Dolly)

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

Everything is nothing if you got no one

And you did walk in the night

Slowly losing sight of the real thing.

(Both)

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

Too deep in love and we got no way out

And the messages is clear

This could be the year of the real thing.

(Dolly)

No more will you cry baby I will hurt you never.

(Both)

We start and end as one in love forever

We can ride it together uh huh

Making love with each other uh huh.

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 uh huh

From one lover to another uh huh.

Instrumental

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 uh huh

From one lover to another uh huh.

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 uh huh

From one lover to another uh huh. . . .
