[ Both ]

We're far apart but our hearts're holding hands

[ Merle ]

It's lonely just to sit here by myself each night

Not knowing when I'll ever get to hold you tight

Oh yes I have temptations and sometimes it's pretty rough

But temptation's never strong as our sweet love

[ Both ]

Cause our hearts are holding hands across the miles

Even though we're lonely we can smile

[ Merle ]

Cause I know you're my woman

[ Bonnie ]

And I know you're my man

[ Both ]

We're far apart but our hearts are holding hands

[ Bonnie ]

Today a stranger looked my way and flashed his gold

And said he'd buy me all the treasures I could hold

But I took out your last letter that said you love me so

And there I found the strenght to tell him no

[ Both ]

Cause our hearts are holding hands...

And come what may our hearts are holding hands
