We're far apart but our hearts are holding hands

Yes it's hard to sit here by myself each night

Not knowing where you are or when I'll hold you tight

Yes I have temptations sometimes it's pretty rough

But temptation's never strong as our sweet love

Cause our hearts are holding hands across the miles

Even though we're lonely we can smile

Cause I know you're my woman and I know you're my man

We're far apart but our hearts are holding hands

[ steel ]

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 where you wrote you love me so

And there I found the strenght to tell him no

Cause our hearts are holding hands...

And come what may our hearts are holding hands
