[ 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
