英文歌词:

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 somethin' 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 somethin' goin' on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel
Needs no conversation
We ride it together, ah-ah
Makin' love with each other, ah-ah
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-ah
From one lover to another, ah-ah
I can't live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothin' if you got no one
And you did walk in tonight
Slowly loosen' 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-ah
Makin' love with each other, ah-ah
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-ah
From one lover to another, ah-ah
Sail away
Oh, 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-ah
From one lover to another, ah-ah
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-ah
From one lover to another, ah-ah

一般人都知道多莉-帕顿(Dolly Parton)有一副温婉的金嗓子,但知道帕顿还有一副超乎常人的商人头脑的人恐怕就不多了。这位现年55岁的美国乡村歌手,在其30多年的职业生涯里,演绎了无数乡村音乐的经典名曲,早已成为像弗兰克-西纳特拉(FrankSinatra)那样的国际巨星。更让人惊叹不已的是,1986年她还不顾所有人的反对,坚持在家乡田纳西州的Pigeon Forge建立了名为“多莉山”(Dollywood)的主题公园。正是这一当初不招人待见的项目现在每年却给多莉-帕顿创造着约3000万美元的纯利,使得她可以衣食无忧地安心于自己的音乐创作。在即将于本周三揭晓的第43届格莱美大奖上,这位已多次荣获“格莱美”大奖的乡村歌坛的常青树又获得了两项提名:《巡游祷告者》(Travelin’Prayer)获最佳乡村歌曲女表演奖提名,《草是蓝色的》(TheGrass Is Blue)获最佳“蓝草”专辑提名。不仅如此,这位老而弥坚的歌星还将在“格莱美”颁奖礼上作为特约嘉宾作精彩表演。
