The Optimist

I believe in making out in elevators
Saying "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

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

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

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
Oh...

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
