Sorrow’s Tearing Down the House (That Happiness Once Built) Songtext
von Dolly Parton & Porter Wagoner

I met you and we married
We planned our future well
We 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
And then came the heartbreak
Brought by so-called friends


I guess that I′m as much to blame
And while we share the guilt
Sorrow's tearing down the house
That happiness once built

First came the weekly parties
That never seemed to end
Then came the heartbreak
Brought by so-called friends

I guess that I'm as much to blame
While we share the guilt
Sorrow′s tearing down the house
That happiness once built

Sorrow′s tearing down the house
That happiness once built
