evening up the odds lyrics

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 our 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 our 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

You 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
