evening up the odds

well i've been looking at the numbers

and it makes me really scared

and i can't help but wonder

how we'll ever get anywhere

hope can die so young

long before the race is run

and the odds are

we're all gonna get out heart broken

someday

and the odds are some of our dreams will get left along the way

and every time you hold me close

it's the light against the dark

and here we are

evening up the odds

evening up the odds

and i want you to tell me

how safe i am with you

and how our hearts together

can't help but make it through

and for every love that leaves

there's a love that's meant to be

and the odds are

we're all gonna get out heart broken

someday

and the odds are some of our dreams will get left along the way

and every time you hold me close

it's the light against the dark

and here we are

evening up the odds

evening up the odds

smile a smile

for every tear that falls

that's not fair but darling after all

here we are

here we are

and the odds are

we're all gonna get our heart broken

someday

and the odds are some of our dreams will get left along the way

every time you hold me close

it's the light against the dark

and here we are

evening up the odds

evening up

evening up

evening up the odds
