FIRST SINGLE FROM FORTHCOMING SOPHOMORE ALBUM HITS COUNTRY RADIO AIRWAVES
RCA Nashville’s hitmakers and reigning ACM New Group of the Year, Old Dominion, releases new music today, March 10. The new single from 2017 ACM Group of the Year nominees, “No Such Thing as a Broken Heart,” arrives at Country radio, digital retail and streaming services today. Written by Old Dominion band members Matthew Ramsey, Trevor Rosen and Brad Tursi, as well as Jesse Frasure, the band again enlists GRAMMY Award-winner Shane McAnally, who produced Old Dominion’s debut album in 2015, the GOLD certified Meat and Candy, to produce “No Such Thing as a Broken Heart.” The new song is the first taste of new music from the band’s highly-anticipated forthcoming sophomore album.
“No matter who you are, where you live or your current status, people both old and young face more challenges than ever,” says Old Dominion’s front man Matthew Ramsey. “It’s in the face of those challenges and standing at the edge of fear that we have to remain positive. Focus on the light that comes from positivity instead of being swallowed up. Work hard at doing what you feel is right. Don’t be scared!! Live life like there’s no such thing as a broken heart.”
“No Such Thing as a Broken Heart” Lyrics
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 them 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
CHORUS
You know you can’t keep the ground from shaking
No matter how hard you try
You can’t keep the sunsets from fading
Gotta treat your life like you’re jumping off a rope swing
Cause the whole thing’s really just a shot in the dark
Gotta love like there’s no such thing as a broken heart
Yeah you gotta love like there’s no such thing as a broken heart
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 it’s luck
I gotta make sure they keep their chin up
Cry when it hurts
Laugh when its funny
Chase after the dream
Don’t chase after the money
Know we got each other and that’s what’s up
CHORUS
Cause you can’t keep the ground from shaking
No matter how hard you try
You can’t keep the sunsets from fading
Gotta treat your life like you’re jumping off a rope swing
Cause the whole thing’s really just a shot in the dark
Gotta love like there’s no such thing as a broken heart
Yeah you gotta love like there’s no such thing as a broken heart
Gotta love like there’s no such thing as a broken heart
