(Wendell Mobley/Stephany Delray)
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
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
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
It was an obstacle course
Had every negative force
Tellin` them they`ll never make it (but)
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
