[ 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
