Don’t Let It Happen To Us Lyrics by Paul Petersen

The Complete Motown Singles | Vol. 7: 1967

[Verse 1]
Everywhere I go I see her
Broken hearts and lonely dreamers
Searching for someone to call their own
(Call their own)
When their hearts are filled with sadness
Oh if only their love had lasted
But curiously, they let it, let it slip away
From them
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that deep inside
Silently they try to hide
The tears
[Chorus]
Don't let it happen to us, my love
Keep us together
No matter what may come, I'll never leave
And don't you ever go
[Verse 2]
I realize that things would always be
Everything I want for you and me
There'll be times when we may disagree
(Disagree)
But there's nothing that we can't overcome
We're together, the battle may still be won
Understanding and trust is all that we need
[Pre-Chorus]
In a world of apathy
We can live in ecstasy
You and me
[Chorus]
So don't let it happen to us, my love
Keep us together
No matter what may come, I'll never leave
And don't, don't you ever go
[Bridge]
World of apathy
Live in ecstasy
You and me
[Chorus]
Don't let it happen to us, my love
Keep us together
No matter what may come, I'll never leave
And don't you ever go
[Outro]
Because I love you, because I care
I'll do all you want to keep you here
I'll plead if I must
Darling, don't let it happen to us
