Evie Irie - The Optimist

Da-na-na-na, ah-na-na-na-na, ah, da
Da-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, da, da
Da-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na, na

Lately, it's been a little bit wild
I wake up wearing this disgusting smile
It's like I hear a parade outside my window
Every day down my street when it used to be a shit show
Da-na-na-na, ah-na-na-na-na, ah, da
Da-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

Where all the dark clouds go?
Silver linings of pure gold
Overnight, this angel found her halo

I don't really feel bad news anymore
Walking through walls like an open door, whoa
I'm shutting down the negativity
I'll find the optimist in me, oh

And so good ain't so bad
I'm giving in to love, I'm sick of being sad
Oh-oh, I could be happy
I could be happy all the time
Da-na-na-na, ah-na-na-na-na, ah, da
Da-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

I wanna drive down main with a megaphone
Shouting, "love's gonna save the day" at the top of my lungs

Where all the dark clouds go
Silver linings of pure gold
Overnight this angel found her halo

I don't really feel bad news anymore
Walking through walls like an open door, whoa
I'm shutting down the negativity
I'll find the optimist in me, oh

And so good ain't so bad
I'm giving in to love, I'm sick of being sad
Oh, oh, I could be happy
I could be happy all the time

Where all the dark clouds go
Silver linings of pure gold
Overnight this angel found her halo

I don't really feel bad news anymore
Walking through walls like an open door, oh
I'm shutting down the negativity
I'll find the optimist in me, oh, ooh

And so good ain't so bad
I'm giving in to love, I'm sick of being sad
Oh, oh, I could be happy
I could be happy all the time
