Over the mountains, over the sea
Just you and me, we were go walking together,
Watching the sunrise over the trees
Wa-Oo-Wa-Oo-Wa
Wa-Oo-Wa-Oo
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Starshine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Star shine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
People like me, can always believe in
Love on an island surrounded by sea
We had a dream, of love never liven
But I know that love can't live in a dream
Wa-Oo-Wa-Oo-Wa
Wa-Oo-Wa-Oo
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Star shine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Star shine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
A-ha, have it all seems like magic (Have it all seems like magic)
Oh yeah (A-ha)
Dreams can come true (Dreams can come true), (Dreams can come true-oo)
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Star shine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Star shine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream but
True love, holding us together
Star shine, Fantasy Island
You know I wish that we could stay like this forever
Fantasy Island, you know we have a dream...

Released during their peak commercial success, the track exemplifies the band's signature sound, characterized by lush orchestration, intricate vocal harmonies, and a driving rhythm section that defined the late 1970s disco-pop era. While often associated with the broader "Super Trouper" era, the song showcases the group's versatility in crafting anthems that transcended their usual balladry. The recording features the distinctive production techniques ABBA employed to create a polished, radio-friendly sound that resonated globally. As part of their extensive discography, the track remains a staple of their live performances and a cherished song in their catalog, reflecting the enduring appeal of their melodic composition and the collaborative chemistry between the four members.
