[C] [F] [C]
[F] [C] Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb
I [F] was soft inside, there was something going [C] on
You [F] [C]
do something to me that I can't explain Pull me closer and I feel no [Bb] pain
In every [F] beat of my heart, we got something going [C] on
Tender love [F] is blind, it requires a dedication [Fm] All this love we feel needs no conversation
[C] We write it together, ha ha Making love with each other, ha ha
Islands in the stream, that is [F] what we are No one [Dm] in between, how can we be wrong?
Sail [C] away with me to [F] another world And we [C] rely on each other, ha ha
From one [Dm] lover to another, [C] ha ha I
[Ab] can't live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothing if you got no one in [Db]
you Slowly losing sight of [Ab] the real thing
[Db] But [Ab]
that won't happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out And [Db] the message is clear
This could be the year for [Ab] the real thing
No more will [N] you cry
