Islands in the Stream - True Swans

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 A tender love is blind, it requires a dedication All this love we feel needs no conversation Rely on each other, oh ohh Makin love with each other, oh ohh Chorus: 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 When we rely on each other, oh ohh From one lover to another, oh ohh I can live without you when your love is gone Everything is nothing when you got no woman You just walk in the night Slowly losing sight of the real thing 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, yeahhh No more will you cry Baby I will hurt you never We started in love forever We rely on each other, oh ohh Makin love with each other, oh ohh Chorus

Now, you be the mother, and I'll be your fool I'll hide myself deep inside Your crimson pool The muddy water runs Beneath your folds You won't let me breathe You won't let me go Now, you be the stranger, and I'll be the white-skinned son You'll blacken my innocence With sugar and opium The children were suffocating Down in your damp cave And you were the mother, and I was the sleeping slave Protect me from violence Hold me in your cool lips You drug me with kindness So I can pretend I exist Now, you be the only child I'll suck on your breast You'll feed me with gasoline I'll burn my name in your head Ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah Ah-ah-ah

Now, some of us are weak And some endure And some people live their lives With a violence that's pure and clean But I saw a man cry once Down on his knees In the corner of a darkened cell And his pain meant nothing to me But I was younger then And young men never die When I walked out in the Sun I was strong, clear-minded and blind Now, don't save a prayer for anyone It doesn't do any good And please, don't ask me a question You'll just be misunderstood And if you could step inside me You'd feel what hatred brings And if you saw with my eyes You'd see what self-deception means I was younger once And I created a lie And though my body was strong I was self-deluded, confident and blind Now, show some pity For the weak of will Because when we're drinking We can never be filled Show some understanding For the lonely fool Because when I am drinking I am out of control No, I was never young And nothing has transpired But when I look in the mirror I feel dead, I feel cold, I am blind I am blind I am blind I am blind
