He was a rebel she was born across the tracks
|
Her parents had his never did
|
To look at them it didn't fit
|
Everyone whispered ain't it weird him with her
|
It'll never work that's what they said
|
But to this day he takes away her breath
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
|
Love didn't listen
|
It only hears what it wants to hear
|
Two hearts beating as one
|
The odds were against 'em
|
Oh but they had something on their side
|
When doubt said it can't be done
|
Love didn't listen
|
|
Married one summer and it was heaven seven years
|
Yeah, there were tears but no big deal
|
They just kept rollin' up love's hill
|
Then one night it happened, bitter words, slammin' doors
|
She said divorce he said me too
|
But even though it sounded like the thing to do
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
It was an obstacle course
|
Had every negative force
|
Tellin' them they'll never make it (but)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
