Barry Manilow
Islands in the Stream
[Verse 1: Barry Manilow]
Baby, when I met you
There was peace unknown
I set out to get you with a fine toothcomb
I was soft inside
There was something going on
[Verse 2: Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
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
[Pre-Chorus 1: Barry Manilow, Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel needs no conversation
We can ride it together, ah-ha
Making love with each other, ah-ha
[Chorus: Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
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
[Verse 3: Reba McEntire]
I can't live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothing if you got no one
And you did walk in the night
Slowly losing sight of the real thing
[Verse 4: Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
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
[Pre-Chorus 2: Reba McEntire, Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
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
[Chorus: Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
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
[Interlude: Barry Manilow, Reba McEntire]
Sail away
Ooooh, come sail away with me
[Chorus: Barry Manilow & Reba McEntire]
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
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
