The Optimist Lyrics by Kelleigh Bannen

2020

[Verse 1]
I believe in makin' out in elevators
Sayin' "I love you" is pencil on paper
I believe in silver linings
And good timing's worth the wait
I believe in midnight pizza
Ain't no way DaVinci didn't love Mona Lisa
I believe in lucky numbers, Indian summers
And New York City in the rain
[Chorus]
Oh, I've had my doubts
That happy-ever-after ever works out
But you made this cynic believe
That every broken heart
Is the beginning of another new start
Of the next great love story
I believe in second chances
Wine drunk kitchen dances
And magic ain't just on TV
But I can't believe
You made an optimist out of me
[Verse 2]
I believe forgiveness is contagious
And whoever says it first is the bravest
Only fight to make up, champagne just because
Miracles happen every day
[Chorus]
Oh, I've had my doubts
That happy-ever-after ever works out
But you made this cynic believe
That every broken heart
Is the beginning of another new start
Of the next great love story
I believe in second chances
Wine drunk kitchen dances
And magic ain't just on TV
But I can't believe
That you made an optimist out of me
[Bridge]
Oh
[Chorus]
Oh, I've had my doubts
That happy-ever-after ever works out
But you made this cynic believe
That every broken heart
Is the beginning of another new start
Of the next great love story
I believe in second chances
Wine drunk kitchen dances
And magic ain't just on TV
But I can't believe
You made an optimist
I can't believe
You made an optimist out of me
