Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
I’m such a hopeless romantic
You wouldn’t think
But if you cut my heart in half it’s really thick
Live for the hope that’s in my mind Bonnie and Clyde the love that never dies
There’s something great about the taste of a mistake
And no I won’t be naming names but I’ve got cake
And when I see that silhouette
I must admit I wanna dance with it
(Dance with it)
[Pre-Chorus]
Few drin
ks and I might
Let my mind run wild
This could be my night
[Chorus]
Finding somebody to love
Right here in this club
What are the odds of that?
What are the odds?
Finding somebody to kiss
That wants to commit
What arе the odds of that?
Yeah, what are thе odds of that?
[Verse 2]
It's a silly fantasy, but human me
Finding the one out on the floor
Wouldn't it be sweet?
Just like Johnny and Baby on the movie screen
All that we could be (We could be)
[Pre-Chorus]
Few drinks and I might
Let my mind run wild
This could be my night
[Chorus]
Finding somebody to love (Hey!)
Right here in this club
What are the odds of that?
What are the odds? (What are the odds of that?)
Finding somebody to kiss (Wow!)
That wants to commit
What are the odds of that?
Yeah, what are the odds of that?
[Bridge]
I'm wide awake but I just keep dreaming
Somehow we all stay up believing
We're dancing in this mess with our bodies sweating out
The question's why?
I'm wide awake and can't shake this feeling
That somewhere in the crowd is my healing
Man, I love this song and I hope it plays a million times
'Till the moment we lock eyes
Finding somebody to love
Right here in this club
What are the odds of that?
[Chorus]
Finding somebody to love (Wow!)
Right here in this club
What are the odds of that? (What are the odds of that?)
What are the odds? (Hey!)
Finding somebody to kiss (To kiss, to kiss)
That want's to commit (Commit, commit)
What are the odds of that?
Yeah, what are the odds of that?
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Yeah, what are the odds of that?
