Chances

I heard this song for the first time today on the radio. And it made me think about how life is all about the chances we take. I have never believed in fate. I believe that everything happens because of the decisions that we make. I can think of a number of huge chances I have taken over the course of my life. Some were stupid, but some of the greatest chances that I have taken were worth it in the end. The relationships I have formed with those closest to me are all the result of my willingness to take a risk, to be open and free, to expose myself to the possibility of getting hurt in the hope that I find something meaningful instead. And I have -- and for this I am eternally grateful. I have the greatest family and friends I could want, and I will never regret the chances I took to make them mine.

Chances are when said and done
Who'll be the lucky ones
Who make it all the way?
Though you say I could be your answer
Nothing lasts forever
No matter how it feels today

Chances are we´ll find a new equation
Chances roll away from me
Chances are all they hope to be

Don't get me wrong I'd never say never
Cause though love can change the weather
No act of God can pull me away from you

I´m just a realistic man
A bottle filled with shells and sand
Afraid to love beyond what I can lose when it comes to you
And though I see us through yeah

Chances are we´ll find two destinations
Chances roll away from me
Still chances are more than expectations
The possibilities
Over me
It´s about the two to one
Lay your money on the ground
until you crash what have you done?
Is there a better bet than love?
What you are is what you breathe
You gotta cry before you sing

Chances chances

Chances lost are hopes torn up pages
Maybe this time
Chances are we´ll be the combination
Chances come and carry me
Chances are waiting to be taken
And I can see
Chances are the fascination
Chances won't escape from me
Chances are only what we make them
And all I need
