Fighting Chance
Last night I had a dream
And in it you were with me
I hope I never wake up
To know that I'm down on my luck
And you don't see me
I walk the halls of school
You with your boys, ya, you got no golden rules
I smile and look your way
But to you I'm just another somebody
Please won't you see me now
I just need somehow and some way
for you to notice me now
Give me somewhere and some day
Give me a fighting chance
One look, one touch, one slow dance
Give me a fighting chance
Then we'll be the ones that others see and say
Oh I wish that was me, mmm
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me, yeah
Oh I wish that was me
What if you were in my shoes
What would you have to lose
Am I in the wrong
Or would you rather be singing this song, yaa
There's a bigger reality
You see cheerleaders A, B and C
While I read my books
And I get the grade
But I'm not shining
I begin to fade, yeaah
Please won't you see me now
I just need somehow and some way
For you to notice me now
Give me somewhere and some day
Give me a fighting chance
One look, one touch, one slow dance
Give me a fighting chance
Then we'll be the ones that others see and say
Oh I wish that was me, mmm
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me yeah
Oh I wish that was me, mmm
Give me a fighting chance
One look, one touch, one slow dance
Give me a fighting chance
Then we'll be the ones that others see and say
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me, that was me baby
Oh I wish that was me
And in it you were with me
I hope I never wake up
To know that I'm down on my luck
And you don't see me
I walk the halls of school
You with your boys, ya, you got no golden rules
I smile and look your way
But to you I'm just another somebody
Please won't you see me now
I just need somehow and some way
for you to notice me now
Give me somewhere and some day
Give me a fighting chance
One look, one touch, one slow dance
Give me a fighting chance
Then we'll be the ones that others see and say
Oh I wish that was me, mmm
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me, yeah
Oh I wish that was me
What if you were in my shoes
What would you have to lose
Am I in the wrong
Or would you rather be singing this song, yaa
There's a bigger reality
You see cheerleaders A, B and C
While I read my books
And I get the grade
But I'm not shining
I begin to fade, yeaah
Please won't you see me now
I just need somehow and some way
For you to notice me now
Give me somewhere and some day
Give me a fighting chance
One look, one touch, one slow dance
Give me a fighting chance
Then we'll be the ones that others see and say
Oh I wish that was me, mmm
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me yeah
Oh I wish that was me, mmm
Give me a fighting chance
One look, one touch, one slow dance
Give me a fighting chance
Then we'll be the ones that others see and say
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me
Oh I wish that was me, that was me baby
Oh I wish that was me
