[Verse 1: Carole King]
Why do we isolate each other?
All the walls we build between us
Make it so hard to be together

[Verse 2: k.d. lang]
How can we tear at one another
When the thing we have in common
Is an uncommon love?

[Bridge: Carole King & k.d. lang]
Walls can fall, tears can mend
So why can't we reach across the line
And touch each other?

[Verse 3: Carole King]
Here on two sides of the truth
We've a middle ground in common
We have an uncommon love

[Bridge: Carole King & k.d. lang]
Time can heal and hearts can mend
So why can't we reach across the line
And touch each other?

[Verse 4: Carole King, k.d. lang, Carole King & k.d. lang]
When will we ever learn
That the thing we have in common
Is an uncommon love?
We have an uncommon love
An uncommon love
