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
Today a stranger looked my way
And flashed his gold
And said he'd buy me all the treasures
I could hold
Then 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
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
And come what may
Our hearts are holding hands
