Chances Are

Chances are I took the wrong turn
Every time I had a turn to take
And I guess I broke my own heart
Every chance I had a heart to break

And it seems I've spent my whole life
Wishing on that same unlucky star
As I watch you cross the ballroom
I wonder what my chances are

Well, I know you've been around
You've seen what you needed to see
And at night when you're dreaming
You're probably not dreaming of me

Though it's safe to say I've stumbled
But I've managed to make it through
This far, as I take one step and then another
I wonder what my chances are

I have watched the world go by
Hand-in-hand wondered why I'm still so
Alone, I lay down my foolish pride
Maybe finally find my heart a home, whoa

Now the band has started playing
A simple song I used to know
I take your hand and walk you out and dance
To the rhythm way down low

Every heart has got a story
Mine just has a few more scars
But they could heal if you would hold me
And tell me what my chances are

Yes, they would heal if you would hold me
And tell me what my chances are
