Islands In The Sky Lyrics - Singles - Mastedon

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)
