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
