In this great city, you don¡¯t hear church bells ring
|
Everybody dances, but nobody sings
|
And in the winter, there¡¯s never snow on the round
|
As I look out my window at the rivers of black
|
I wanna get out on the at highway and never come back
|
I set and wonder, has it all passed me by
|
Islands in the sky
|
|
Skyscraper temples way above the clouds
|
And a streetcorner preacher, shoutin¡¯ out loud
|
Nobody listens, and nobody cares
|
But everybody needs a dream
|
Everybody needs and island in the sky
|
|
Chorus:
|
Islands in the sky, Islands in the sky
|
Make a young boy¡¯s dreams, make an old man cry
|
Islands in the sky, Islands in the sky
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
|
|
Someday I¡¯ll be there, I just don¡¯t know when
|
It¡¯s so far away now, but it won¡¯t be then
|
I don¡¯t know, I don¡¯t know
|
But everybody needs a dream
|
Everybody needs and island in the sky
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
|
