Forever the Optimist

I'm very sorry
That I never got through to you
All the things I promised
All the lies that wouldn't do
I had a vision
That I was gonna realize
But I made a decision
When things just wasn't right

I never want to be too good at anything
'Cause that would mean the risk of something permanent
I choose satisfaction over success
I'm forever the optimist

You can call me a fool
Naive or even dumb
I will happily play that part
If it means I don't have to run
But I'll get up and leave
Before it all gets too dark
I'll stay forever
As long as there's a spark

I never want to be too good at anything
'Cause that would mean the risk of something permanent
I choose satisfaction over success
I'm forever the optimist

I never want to be too good at anything
'Cause that would mean the risk of something permanent
I choose satisfaction over success
I'm forever the optimist
