Islands in the Stream

Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown.

I set out to get you with a finetooth comb.

I was soft inside, there was something going (C)on.

(F)You do something to me that I can't explain.

Hold me closer and I feel no pain.

Ev'ry beat of my heart, we got something going on.

(C)Tender love is (Fmaj7)blind.

It requires a dedication.

(Fm)All this love we feel needs no conversation.

We (C)ride it together, ah, ah,

making love with each other, ah,

ah. Islands in the stream, that is what (F)we are.

No one in (Dm)between.

How can we be wrong?

Sail away (C)with me to (F)another world,

and we (C)rely on each other,

ah, ah.

From one lover to another, ah,

ah.

(Ab)I can't live without you if the love was gone.

Ev'rything is nothing if you got no one.

And you did (Db)walk in tonight,

slowly losing sight of the (Ab)real thing.

(Ab)But that won't happen to us,

and we got no doubt.

Too deep in love, and we got no way out.

And the (Db)message is clear:

this could be the year for the (Ab)real thing.

No more will you (Dbmaj7)cry.

Baby, I will hurt you never.

We (Dbm)start and end as one,

in love forever.

We can (Ab)ride it together, ah,

ah, making love with each other,

ah, ah.

Islands in the stream, that is what (Db)we are.

No one in (Bbm)between.

How can we be wrong?

Sail away (Ab)with me to (Db)another world,

and we (Ab)rely on each other,
