Sorrow's Tearing Down The House

(Mel Tillis - Kent Westberry)



I met you and we married we planned our future well

Built our home on happiness then suddenly it fell

It wasn't long thereafter our love began to tilt

Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.



First came the weekly parties that never seemed to end

Then came the heartaches brought by a so-called friend

I guess that I'm as much to blame while we share the guilt

Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.
