[Lyric] Real Contender (The Dip)

[Verse 1]
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)

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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)
[Chorus]
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

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

[Chorus]
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
