Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, hey
Keep your chin up, hey
Hey
[Verse 2]
I wonder if Jack and Diane ever made it
After the drums and the guitars all faded
Was the best they could do good enough?
Or did the heartland just swallow 'em up?
How did my mom and my dad ever do it?
If there were struggles, then we never knew it
I guess they had each other and that was enough
[Verse 3]
You know, you can't keep the ground from shaking
No matter how hard you try
Can't keep the sunsets from fading
Gotta treat your life like
You're jumping off a rope swing, baby
'Cause the whole thing's really just a shot in the dark
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
[Verse 4]
What am I gonna tell my kids when they see
All of this bullshit that goes down on TV?
When the whole world is down on its luck
I gotta make sure they keep their chin up
Cry when it hurts, laugh when it's funny
Chase after the dream, don't chase after the money
And know we got each other and that's what's up
[Verse 5]
'Cause you can't keep the ground from shaking
No matter how hard you try
You can't keep the sunsets from fading
You gotta treat your life like
You're jumping off a rope swing, baby
'Cause the whole thing's really just a shot in the dark
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
[Verse 6]
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
[Verse 7]
'Cause you can't keep the ground from shaking
No matter how hard you try
You can't keep the sunsets from fading
You gotta treat you life like
You're jumping off a rope swing, baby
'Cause the whole thing's really just a shot in the dark
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
You gotta love, love, love, love
Like there's no such thing
You gotta love, love, love, love
As a broken heart
You gotta love like there's no such thing as a broken heart
