[@combatbarbie1870]

I wanted to let you know how much this song means to me. My husband is a 3 tour combat Retired Army veteran & has severe PTSD among physical limitations. I heard this song and I cried & cried. These words speak volumes to how he has built up walls to protect himself from his damaged traumatic past. We have been married 13 years now & I played this song for him and he broke down and cried. Your music reaches beyond just those who listen to songs, they reach the heart & have the power to heal............Thank you so much for this song!! You two are my favorite

This song is comforting. I feel like I need to cry but I cannot even I've tried, it's so hard to cry or have emotion to ease inside my chest. But this song, once again, so comforting.

[@22barboso]

This is, hands down, the deepest, most heart wretching song I have ever heard. It's simply miraculous. Duo's like these two don't happen very often. To listen to this song is like having a cord going straight into your heart, pumping the exact emotions deep inside of it. Possibly one of the best songs my ears have ever had the honor of listening to.

[@rosiepena8917]

The One That Got Away and Poison & Wine are two of my other favorites that I think are absolutely hauntingly beautiful and sad at the same time

[@joem7572]

@@rosiepena8917 They had such great chemistry. Poison and Wine, Dust to Dust, 20 years, and The One That Got Away are my favorites. My wife and I have both albums long with their solo stuff and they are each amazing in their own right. My wife found The Sweeplings while listening to The Civil Wars station on Pandora and they are very similar to The Civil Wars. I believe John Paul White produced some of their music. Let's hope for a reunion at some point, sooner vs later to be sure. Cheers!

[@katriniemi8748]

my boyfriend dedicated this song to me.. we used to be friends, and i never let anyone, any guy come in my walls due to the fact i suffered an incredibly amount of mental illness.. and suddenly, me and him became more then that... and soon it will be 9 months for us, and honestly i never could feel so happy to let him through the gates of my heart. to be honest, i was scared. but, now i forgot what fear is like. he changed me. no more meds. no more cutting. no more hospitalizations. it's crazy, but so satisfying how a human being, can change you and your perspective on how you look at things and life. i love you babe. thank you so much.

[@cece8095]

Most of the time if not every time the reason an artist looks at another artist so intently like they are studying them or watching them lol, is really just because they need to make sure that harmonies are totally on point. So sometimes you’ll see singers looking at someone else mouth or face lol. It’s especially true when one of the singers is an ad-libber like these two. That’s basically the only reason these two ever looked at each other while singing. It wasn’t romantic at all, so calm down people. They’re both perfectionists, they wanna get the vocals right.

[@MKD-dd6ng]

This song is me and my husband all around. We both came from hard backgrounds. Abuse, drugs and alcohol....Abandonment. It was a hard life to get through as children. He was tossed from foster home to foster home, back and forth to the abuse of his parents, all the while being abused in the foster homes. I was just emotionally and physically abused by an alcoholic father who never wanted me, and a mother who would get beaten and leave me behind while she ran from it. It never ended for either of us until we physically left it behind. He was shipped to live with an aunt in my school system, and we met. It was truly LOVE AT 1ST SIGHT for us both! Our hearts melted, we fell in love, and 28 yrs later, and 25 married, here we are! Both of us knowing what it means to break down one another's walls, and let someone in to really, truly love each other! Did we hurt each other some, OF COURSE! We were broken individuals.....But what our raising taught us (if nothing else) is YOU DON'T GIVE UP!!!! We hung in, toughed it out, and made a wonderful life together. I feel so sorry that these 2 couldn't fight harder, and beat their demons. We should pray for them both.....Because I can still hear the pain when I listen to him sing. 😔🙏💗

[@alanarcher5954]

In reply to those folks who wonder why they broke up and can't make this music anymore, I believe Joy when she said just listen to the new album. I think that they came to the realization that they were soul mates, perhaps, and just fell in love, or got as close to it as any two could dare to venture, when that love is so fraught with complications and cannot be fulfilled.

[@ErisedDawn]

So sad, but it seems like you're very right.

[@ilovenycsomuch]

I’m basically never for straying from marriage but in this case I’d hate to think that two pure soulmates had the unlikely odds of finding each other but simply let it go because they already happened to settle down, do you know if they’re really in love with their married partners? Cuz I think it’s possible to have more than one great love, but if they don’t even love their partners as much or they’re thinking they wish they could’ve been with each other... that might be even worse for their partners’ sakes

[@paulsriotroom]

Love broke this duo apart, lovers shame on them.

[@amsaric]

This is one of my favorites and I've listened to it a million times and seen the video... And yet, I only just now saw the possible storyline that this song is about them, about their discord. How they've been lonely in this duo ever since the discord, how they want to be let into each other's walls to get back what they had, and yet understanding that there are scars, that they did their time... I am beginning to see that this could be one of the songs through which they communicated what they couldn't just come out and say.

[@amberray117]

amsaric That's a good theory. I also thought they could be talking about their marriages and going through a rough patch. Joy has not been shy about admitting that at the time when their hiatus was announced, her marriage had been suffering greatly. As to why she has not disclosed, but it's her right to not do so. However, I do believe they had a genuine chemistry that was pretty much out of this world. I'm sure that can't be easy on any marriage, to see your supposed other half connecting so spectacularly on that type of level with someone that isn't you. I believe they could of had an affair, but also believe they could of not had one and that's why they stopped working together. To not cheat on their spouses and preserve the families they had. If that were/is the case, that's pretty honorable and they sacrificed a huge chunk of themselves for their families.

[@megatrollificus]

I don't know about "affair", exactly. Connection? HELL yes! Attraction? Hard to deny. Physical intimacy? Well, they toured small venues WITHOUT her husband for a while...so the possibility of a slip-up exists. AND, she'd been married for like 8 or 9 years without having a kid, then toured with JP...BOOM! Pregnant. And now no kids since the break up. And in, "I Wish You'd Been the One That Got Away", she flat out states she wanted to go back to when the attraction was only mental, only potential...indicating that at some point, at least once, it became physical reality. So, they did the honorable thing, sad as that is for those of us who loved them together.
