Pessimist

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Plantin' lemon trees since I was twenty-three Watchin', waitin' for it to grow but still, it tasted bittersweet No matter what I did No matter what I did I was hot-headed to the ninth degree Punch and pushed by anything I thought would make a mess of me That's just what I did That's just what I did [Pre-Chorus] Made me die, made me melt You've changed the way I felt With your touch, with your help You took a pessimist and turned me into something else [Chorus] You're all I see in my mind I think I see a lifetime Done holding on to myself You took a pessimist and turned me into something else Painlessly caught in your eyes I think I see a lifetime Done holding on to myself You took a pessimist and turned me into something else [Verse 2] You made me believe that she ain't no make-believe I'll stop checking horoscopes to cope with all my misery That's just what you did That's just what you did, yeah [Pre-Chorus] Made me die, made me melt You've changed the way I felt With your touch, with your help You took a pessimist and turned me into something else [Chorus] You're all I see in my mind (In my mind) I think I see a lifetime (A lifetime) Done holding on to myself (To myself) You took a pessimist and turned me into something else Painlessly caught in your eyes (In your eyes) I think I see a lifetime (A lifetime) Done holding on to myself (To myself) You took a pessimist and turned me into something else [Pre-Chorus] Made me die, made me melt You've changed the way I felt With your touch, with your help You showed me what it means to fall in deep like no one else [Chorus] You're all I see in my mind (In my mind) I think I see a lifetime (A lifetime) Done holding on to myself (To myself) You took a pessimist and turned me into something else Painlessly caught in your eyes (In your eyes) I think I see a lifetime (A lifetime) Done holding on to myself (To myself) You took a pessimist and turned me into something else
