“Islands In The Stream” Lyrics:
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
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
Sail away
[Instrumental Interlude]
Ooooh, come sail away with me
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
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between

A real classic duet. I can see the two of you singing this in my mind's eye Dolly. Great!
Hi Dolly. So nostalgic ❤it!
Two amazing legends! Love this song.
That's how it works… One-to-one, anchored in the same riverbed… Separate and distinct but very much together… no random arrangement of Stones but a common HEART… that beats in rhythm whether apart or very much together. It is a HARMONY authored in the Stars: The Lost Chord in chorus with all who have searched and found that True Love Waits.
A moment that speaks to the Soul, of Forever…
🎶
Love you Dolly ❤
Ah, a favorite of mine especially! 🧡🧡🧡
Can't wait for Dolly's Rock album. It will be spectacular.
Feeling nostalgic😎👍

Go Dolly! The Mantooth boys from sevierville are sending you Love!
