Against All Odds

by John Holley   Nov 6, 2004


They say we won't work
And we're bound to fail
But they can't see the future
Only time will tell
They say we're too young
We don't know what love is
Well there is no emotion
That could be above this
Told me if I fall in love
I'd miss out on so much
But I'd rather miss the world
Than to miss your touch
They said it can't happen
And we're waisting our time
Acting like me loving you
Is committing a crime
So we're against all odds
It's just me and my girl
If no one's on our side
Then we'll go against the world

    I feel simalar to that,
    my family doesn't want me and my boyfriend to be together but because we love eachother too much to let go we basically are keeping our relationship secret

    WOW! this is beautifully written. so sweet and cute. i loved these four lines "Told me if I fall in love
    I'd miss out on so much
    But I'd rather miss the world
    Than to miss your touch" i think that they are so touching. i can't convey how much i enjoyed this, the rhyme, flow and diction is brilliant. another great one. tc. xmollyxx
