Real Contender Songtext
von The Dip

How they hang around, like echoes in a chamber
Floating in and out from minor into major
Wanted you to feel like you could really trust me but maybe
I just don′t deserve it
But when you think it through
I'm hoping that you
Realize that I have always been beside you
Sand between our fingers
Time is always movin′ along
(Here and then it's gone)

I wanna be a real contender
Whether you see it or not
I know it's in there
Somewhere this thing that we got
For once in my life I am sure of something
For once in my life I am sure of something


I know my eyes deceive a brief and fleeting failure
They want what they don′t need
I try to see it clearer
Changin′ of the seasons
Time is always creepin' along
(Here and then it′s gone)

I wanna be a real contender
Whether you see it or not
I know it's in there
Somewhere this thing that we got
For once in my life I am sure of something
For once in my life I am sure of

Something there I should′ve noticed yesterday
But now my heart won't let me see it any other way

So I wanna be a real contender
Whether you see it or not
I know it′s in there
Somewhere this thing that we got
For once in my life I am sure of something
For once in my life I am sure of something

For once in my life I am sure of something
For once in my life I am sure of something
