lyrics

Against All Odds words & music by M. Scott Nielsen ©2002

V1
Their eyes meet for an instant across a crowded bar
They share some drinks and small talk not revealing who they are
But they ware their hunger and loneliness like a badge for all to see
It seemed perhaps a one-night stand is what was meant to be

He walks her to her car in the pouring rain
They embrace and when their lips meet something sparks a flame
That ignites with such a passion it must surely tempt the gods
They throw their lot together and take a chance against all odds

Chorus:
Against all odds without a prayer or a snowballs chance in hell
A most unlikely couple
Their friends all wished them well
But as weeks turn into months and years they just go on and on
They’re still living, laughing, crying and loving against all odds

V2
She’s a mystic, he’s a sometimes cynic but they find common ground
In all they share together and in the love they found
She gets angry, he gets stubborn but it never lasts too long
They always laugh and make up and their love seems twice as strong

He still has the matchbook with her number from that night
In her heart she saves the memories of a love that feels so right
When they kiss there’s still a warmth left from the flame
That ignited with the first one in the pouring rain
Chorus: repeat.
Reprise:
They’re still living, laughing, crying and loving against all odds

about

Scott Nielsen Bordentown, New Jersey

"I'm a 50's rocker and never was told how to grow up and when to grow old . . ." to quote one of my tunes and it sums me up pretty well. I have been writing songs since the early 60's. In the 70's I wrote children's songs for Captain Kangaroo. I have been a writer and publisher ASCAP member since 1973.

I write across several genres: country, rock and adult alternative.
