“Let’s See Where This Goes - Chances Are"

"Let's See Where This Goes - Chances Are" Mid-Tempo R&B

You never cleared a drawer, you never changed your plans
You kept a little distance, always one foot out in hand
And I mistook the maybe for a door that might swing wide
But maybe was just cover for the options waiting on the side

---

## [PRE-CHORUS]
'Cause open roads go everywhere
And everywhere ain't here
You can't build a home on *let's see*
When someone else is near

---

## [CHORUS]
Chances are... *let's see where this goes*
Means the window's still cracked, and the cold wind blows
Means you're weighing what I'm worth while you keep me close
Chances are... options are open
Chances are... options are open

---

## [VERSE 2]
You were never fully absent, never fully mine
Just present enough to hold me, distant enough to shine
I kept rewriting your silence into something I could use
Turning *I don't know yet* into *baby I choose you*

But chosen doesn't linger at the edge of in between
Chosen shows up even when the showing up ain't easy
And I deserved a direction, not a compass with no north
Not a hand that holds me halfway and a heart that won't go forth

---

## [PRE-CHORUS]
'Cause open roads go everywhere
And everywhere ain't home
You can't write a love story
On *we'll see* written in stone

---

## [BRIDGE]
I'm not the backup plan
I'm not the *for now*
I'm not the space you fill
Till something better comes around

You said *let's see where this goes*
But I already know
When someone chooses you
They don't say *let's see* — they show

---

## [OUTRO — Reflective, slowing]
Chances are... you were never lost
You knew exactly where you stood
I was just the *maybe* in a story
That ended where it should

Chances are...
*(fade)*

*And most importantly, remember you are extraordinary.*
