Pessimist

[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
