(Dorothy Jo Hope)

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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
(Dorothy Jo Hope)      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.      --- Instrumental ---      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...
