against the odds

Hooray! I actually deleted an entry from my scrap book. The title "against the odds" had rested there for quite a considerable time, now I've actually used it. Bernd O. had asked me to write a title "I see the sun", but somehow after listening to his music out came something quite different. He may like it or not. This is it:

against the odds
we'd hit it off
quite instantly

though reservations
on her part
arose eventually

some minor lapse
impeding her
from appreciating me

we'll work it out
she'll have to see
against the odds

I see the light behind her eyes
and I know the truth behind my lies
I do accept what she defies
'cause I admit what she denies
I'll hold her
I'll hold her tight
I'll never leave her
again

against the odds
we'll find a way
get it together

and I'll stay true
in good times or
come bad weather

all her doubts
will dissipate
'cause we are - birds of a feather

she'll see we are
a perfect match
against the odds

I see the light behind her eyes
