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
