Easy, it would be easy
I said easy, it would be easy

It would be easier to take the wet from water or the dry from sand 
Than for anyone to try to separate us, stop us from holding hands

'Cause I love you ('cause I), girl I love you (love you) 
Ooh I love you from the bottom of my heart 
And what love has joined together (what love has joined together)
Don't let nobody (nobody take it apart) 
Oh, you know you can't let (nobody take it apart), alright 

Haha, yeah

It would be easier to take the cold from snow (easier)
(It would be easier) or take the heat from fire 
Than for anyone to take my love from you (easier)
(It would be easier) you're my heart's desire

And I love you, baby ('cause I love you baby) 
Really, really love you, baby (really, really love you, baby)
Oh I love you from the bottom of my heart 
And what love has joined together, yeah (what love has joined together don't let)
Ooh don't let nobody (nobody take it apart)
Oh, you know you can't let (nobody take it apart)
Nobody, nowhere, no how, no time
(Nobody take it apart)
Yeah, no mother, sis, or brother
(Nobody take it apart) ah, nobody  

I said, even if they (even if they) separate us 
A thousand miles apart, yeah, yeah (a thousand miles apart)
We will still be together, I know, we will still be together
We'll be together in each other's hearts 

It would be easy, it would be easy
(It would be easy) easy (it would be easy)
It would be easier to change all the seasons of the year 
Than for anyone to come along and change the way I feel about you
(Ooh) I love you, dear
Girl, I love you, love you, love you, love you ('cause I love you)
Love you, love you, love you, love you 
Love you from the bottom of my heart (love you from the bottom of my heart)
And what love has joined together, together, together, ah (what love has joined together)
Don't let nobody (nobody take it apart), oh, don't let nobody (nobody take it apart)
I said, what love (has joined) has joined (together)
Ooh, don't let nobody come between it
What love (has joined) has joined (together)
Ooh, don't say you love me unless you mean it, forever
