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.
