Two kids running wild
flipping laps burning gas nothing better to do
Two lives on the sides of the tracks
Falling fast my family wanted nothing to do with you
Like a backroad Romeo and Juliet
Can’t stop my heart from beating out of my chest
They knew better but we knew best

We might as well have come from different planets
Yea nothing ‘bout us really adds up
We were pulled together just like magnets
When everyone was trying to break us up

Girl we never should have made it
I hate to say it but it’s true
Every card was stacked against us
Didn’t think we’d make it through
But look what fate did
Showed everybody what we knew
All along our love was strong they couldn’t break it
Yea girl we made it, yea we made it

Nineteen big city no money rent due didn’t have a thing
So I called a guy got a gig made a deal
Spent every last dime on a diamond ring
Two crazy kids taking on the world
Diving in the deep end going headfirst
When everybody said we’d never work

We cried we fought and oh my god we struggled
But we never gave up or caved in

When we never should have made it
I hate to say it but it’s true
Every card was stacked against us
Didn’t think we’d make it through
But look what fate did
Showed everybody what we knew
All along our love was strong they couldn’t break it
Yea girl we made it, yea we made it

One day when we’re old and gray
Kids moved away I can proudly say that
I would do it all over again
The valleys the mountains the highs and the lows
The hell we survived now everyone knows
Exactly where we stand

When we never should have made it
I hate to say it but it’s true
Every card was stacked against us
But somehow we made it through
Now look what fate did
Showed everybody what we knew
All along our love was strong they couldn’t break it
Yea girl we made it, yea we made it
Girl we made it, yea we made it
