Award-winning country duo Maddie & Tae are sharing the brand-new track, “Heart They Didn’t Break,” out everywhere today.
The song’s lyrics tell a story of true friendship in times of heartbreak, as the pair take turns on lead vocals and weave in their signature harmonies.
Written by Benjy Davis, Anna Vaus and Ryan Beaver, the song is produced by Corey Crowder. Listen to “Heart They Didn’t Break” here.
“Our friendship has gotten us through so many phases of life,”
MADDIE & TAE
“We feel like this song captures that sentiment so beautifully, and we are excited to share it.”
MADDIE & Tae
“HEART THEY DIDN’T BREAK LYRICS”
It’s 200 miles from Ole Miss
Said she had class but she could skip
She’ll stop for gas and pick up some wine
But she’ll be here by five, yeah, she’ll be here by five
She ain’t the one that slammed the door and tore off in a truck
She ain’t the one that made me feel like I ain’t good enough
But someone’s gotta help clean up the mess you went and made
So, here’s to friends there to fix a heart they didn’t break
She’ll help me throw old memories out
Spend a couple of nights there on the couch
She’ll keep me off my phone and out of my mind
And she ain’t gonna lie
And say, it’s gonna be alright
She ain’t the one that slammed the door and tore off in a truck
She ain’t the one that made me feel like I ain’t good enough
But someone’s gotta help clean up the mess you went and made
So, here’s to friends there to fix a heart they didn’t break
Didn’t break and never would
Through the bad and through the good
Thank God for friends like that
I guess some things really last
‘Cause she ain’t the one that slammed the door and tore off in a truck
She ain’t the one that made me feel like I ain’t good enough
But someone’s gotta help clean up the mess you went and made
So, here’s to friends there to fix a heart they didn’t break
Yeah, here’s to friends there to fix a heart they didn’t break
ABOUT MADDIE & TAE
Madison Font and Taylor Kerr have this super-power.
More indestructible than kryptonite, more attracting than a roomful of magnets.
Seeing them sharing a song, it’s easy to miss.
Or maybe it’s easy to discount as a super-power, because it’s so natural and obvious.
Before they were 20, Maddie & Tae accomplished things many artists never achieve.
Speaking truth to power, they ignited a sensation with the self-penned BroCountry skewer
“Girl In A Country Song,” named one of the Nashville Songwriter’s Hall of Fame’s
“I Wish I Wrote That Song” Award-winners and the Song of the Year in the Nashville Scene’s Country Critics Poll.
Its hilarious stereotype-flipping video won CMA Video of the Year.
Touring internationally, they racked up gold, platinum and multi-platinum certifications.
Facing every turn, falter and crummy boyfriend with built-in back-up, they kept writing.
They left a label, rebuilt their sense of how business works, took control of their music on a deeper level, recycling it all into their second #1 “Die From A Broken Heart.”
It certified gold around the same time it hit Country’s Top 40, platinum by the time it summit-ed the country airplay charts, and double platinum a few months later.
Growing into young women, who like so many other 20-somethings, were figuring out how to navigate the world, (re)build a dream, deal with life, they continued leading with their wide-open hearts.
“Our bond is unbreakable,”
Taylor kerr
“When you’ve been through as much as we have our relationship is the force that keeps us going”
Madison font
