... insensitive things people say

Lyrics

SO THEY SAY

VERSE
Kalie gave her young heart to a boy who knew all the right things to say and he sure knew how to take and take
And then one year right to the day he just up and he drove away
Left Kalie crying and dying inside

CLIMB
But everybody says she's the lucky one she didn't love him long enough to really get hurt that much
There's plenty more where he came from
He was only her first love
It's all part of growing up
So they say yeah

VERSE
Anna lived her life for her family oh they were her legacy
Four kids eleven grandkids and a man she adored
Now he's gone and she tries hard to be strong
But when he died he took along the biggest part of Anna's poor old heart

CLIMB
Yet everybody says she's the lucky one she got to love him for so long
They must have known the day would come
She's got family to see her through
And memories to hold on to
When you're old that's what you do
So they say

CHORUS
But Kalie and Anna they both know
Pain is pain young or old
And it's not just somewhere between those two that hearts get broke
Oh

VERSE
Anna saw her granddaughter at the door said Kalie and nothing more
They just sobbed and held each other close
One had loved a year the other fifty-two
Yet in that moment they both knew
That love can rip the heart right out of you

CLIMB
But everybody says they're the lucky ones
One was old and one was young
That's the time to lose someone
And time will help them understand
It's all part of a greater plan
Oh they'll learn to live again
So they say

CHORUS
But Kalie and Anna they both know
Pain is pain young or old
And it's not just somewhere between those two that hearts get broke
Oh ... no
