Fifty-Fifty Chance - Lyrics by Suzanne Vega


Lyrics
50-50 chance

The doctor said

In the cardiac room

As she's lying in bed


There's a pan on the floor

Filled with something black
I need to know
I'm afraid to ask

I hug you
I hum to you
I've come to you
I touch you

I tell you
I love you
I sing to you

Bring to you

Anything


Her little heart

It beats so fast

Her body trembles

With the effort to last

I hug you
I hum to you
I've come to you
I touch you

I tell you
I love you
I sing to you

Bring to you

Anything


She's going home

Tomorrow at ten

The question is

Will she try it again?
