David Cook - Optimistic to a Fault lyrics

rate me

*Corrected Song Title: Better Never than Late*

Any second I would sing you to sleep

With kind words in mind and hearts on the sleeve

Leave nothing to chance and everything behind

Second chances pave the way to broken hearts

This is the moment where I tell you that I'm falling apart

And I'm stuck in reverse between the same damn lies

Oh no, there I go, optimistic to a fault

Go home, you can never go again

When anything at all is anything but you

I want nothing, my dear

This always ends in tears

You were my everything in all

And now my everywhere but here

This always ends in tears

Second chances pave the way to broken hearts

This is the moment where I tell you that I'm falling apart

And I'm stuck in reverse between the same damn lies

We're tossing pennies, making wishes to make it right

Another lonely day, another lonely night

And I would give anything if you would only pick up the phone

Oh no, there I go, optimistic to a fault

Go home, you can never go again

When anything at all is anything but you

I want nothing, my dear

This always ends in tears

You were my everything in all

And now my everywhere but here

This always ends in tears
