Optimist

(I'll never let you fall for it)
(I'd rather be an optimist)

It's sunny here in the valley
But it's pouring rain in your dreams
Maybe there's something in the water
Making them feel out of reach

When you're way down, and it's dark out
And it feels like no one's there with you, you're wrong
'Cause I've been here all along

And when the roof caves in, a
Nd you're stuck in a moment
But the world keeps spinning around
I'll be with you for all of it
I'd rather be an optimist
And if you lose your hope
I know the feelin' when the world keeps countin' you out
I'll never let you fall for it
I'd rather be an optimist

You don't have to rush to get there
Don't be afraid to ask for help
If you stand up tall
You can break the walls that you've built up around yourself

If you're way down, and it's dark out
And it feels like no one's there with you, you're wrong
'Cause I've been here all along

And when the roof caves in
And you're stuck in a moment
But the world keeps spinning around
I'll be with you for all of it
I'd rather be an optimist
And if you lose your hope
I know the feelin' when the world keeps countin' you out
I'll never let you fall for it
I'd rather be an optimist

I'd rather be a glass-half-full type of guy
I'd rather have a good day stuck on my mind
I'll be with you for all of it
I'd rather be an optimist
I'd rather be a glass-half-full type of guy
I'd rather have a good day stuck on my mind
I'll be with you for all of it
I'd rather be an optimist
