Islands In the Sky Lyrics by Mastedon

It’s a Jungle Out There!

0

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 ground
As I look out my window at the rivers of black
I wanna get out on that highway and never come back
I sit and wonder, has it all passed me by
Islands in the sky
Skyscraper temples way above the clouds
And a streetcorner preacher shouting out loud
Nobody listens and nobody cares
But everybody needs a dream
Everybody needs and island in the sky
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Make a young boy's dreams
(Ooh...)
Make an old man cry
Islands in the sky
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Islands in the sky, oh-oh
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Make a young boy's dreams
(Ooh...)
Make an old man cry
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
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
Everybody needs a dream
Everybody needs and island in the sky
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Make a young boy dream
(Ooh...)
Make an old man cry
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Islands in the sky
(Ooh...)
Whoa-whoa-whoa
(Ooh...)
