Baby when I met you there was peace unknown

All this love we feel needs no conversation.

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.

Slowly losing sight of the real thing.

This could be the year of the real thing.
