Optimist Songtext
von Charlie Dore

If I had a penny for every time you′d said
If I had a penny I'd be rich
You need an optimist to wave and smile
Each time that you drop a stitch

Down to the dust and the promises
Still looking up at the sky

Tomorrow′s got a better kind of ring to it
Tomorrow's got a little less rain
Tomorrow's got a whole new day in it
Then my luck will change

If you said you′re sorry for every time you knew
You should be sorry I′d be gone
But who needs arithmetic to add to those mistakes
When you get it wrong

Holding a light in the dark again
Hopelessly hopeful you know


Tomorrow's got a better kind of ring to it
Tomorrow′s got a little less rain
Tomorrow's got a whole new day in it
My luck′s changing

Tomorrow's got a different kind of sound to it
Tomorrow gonna stake my claim
Tomorrow′s got a whole new day in it
My luck's changing

It's only yesterday
It will be gone in the morning
Let it slip away

Holding a light in the dark again for me
Hopelessly hopeful you know

Tomorrow′s got a better kind of ring to it
Tomorrow′s got a little less rain
Tomorrow's got a whole new day in it
My luck′s changing

Tomorrow's got a different kind of sound to it
Tomorrow gonna stake my claim
Tomorrow′s got a whole new day in it

Then my luck will change
Then my luck will change
