We Can't Let This Happen To Us Lyrics - Dolly Parton

Lately we're acting as if we were strangers 

For a moment with each other we don't take time 

With our work and busy schedules of things we think important 

Seems we've left the most important things behind 

And we can't let this happen to us 

The hills that we climb may seem rough 

And the mountains between could shadow our dreams 

And we can't let this happen to us 

[ steel - trumpet ] 

We can't let this happen to us 

We must cherish each smile and tender touch 

For the castles we've built could all crumble to dust 

And we can't let this happen to us 

No we can't let this happen to us
