Fantasy Island Lyrics

Gather around people I just dreamt
Of this song
About all the world gettin' along
I see human rights, no shallow graves
Politician's speak the truth, no one's got Aids
I look at a Muslim embracing a Jew
Everyone eating everyone's food
Free from diseases, ain't no Third World
Love is the message, love is the word

This is my island, my fantasy, my fantasy
This is my island, my fantasy, my fantasy

There's a welcome mat at the
Center of the earth
No sign of hate, a four-letter word
The children are playingin air
You can breathe
People got dreams, people achieve
Everywhere's music, sunshine and laughter
We still feel the same the morning after
Words in the air, love in the heart
This is my dream, a brand new start

This is my island, my fantasy, my fantasy
This is my island, my fantasy, my fantasy
Say what have we got
We got the power
Got sixty seconds, got every hour
Say what have we got
We got the power
We are the spark to light the fire
Got one blood, got one skin
Got one soul deep within
Got a heart beating fast
Got a dream, got no past
Say what have we got
