Optimistic To A Fault

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

Taking chances pave the wasy
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
