Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It would be easier to take the wet from water
Or the dry from sand
Than for anyone to try to separate us
And stop us from holding hands
[Verse 2]
'Cause I love you (I love you)
I love you from the bottom of my heart
[Verse 3]
And what love has joined together
What love has joined together
Can't nobody take it apart
[Verse 4]
It would be easier to take the cold from snow
Or the heat from fire
Than for anyone to take my love from you
'Cause you're my heart's desire
[Verse 5]
And I love you (I love you)
I love you from the bottom of my heart
[Verse 6]
And what love has joined together
What love has joined together
Can't nobody take it apart
[Verse 7]
Even if they separate us
A thousand miles apart
We will still be together
In each other's hearts
[Verse 8]
It would be easier to change all the seasons
Of the year
Than for anyone to change the way I feel about you
I love you, dear
[Verse 9]
Really love you (I love you)
I love you from the bottom of my heart
[Verse 10]
And what love has joined together
What love has joined together
Can't nobody take it apart
[Verse 11]
What love has joined together
What love has joined together
