Lyrics

I was getting good at living in my lonely paradise
Now I'm letting her get tangled in my busy little life
She's a heartbreaker on paper
So I'll read between the lines
Now I'm crossing both my fingers
And I'm closing both my eyes
We were casually kissing in the corner of a bar
Trading compliments like medicine to fix our broken hearts
Now I'm narrowing my vision
I'm a little caught off guard
By how quickly
I am feeling right at home inside her arms
'Cause optimism isn't for the faint of heart
And ain't forever just a fragile house of cards?
If you go outside you might bitten by a snake
But that's a risk I'm willing to take
[Instrumental]
Old love often lingers like a sweater that is torn
You don't wear it in the winter but you kept in the drawer
And the last one did some damage
Like a category four
Some might call it a disaster
I call it an open door
'Cause loving someone means you've got someone to lose
And tougher skin don't mean it's never gonna bruise
If we take a walk we might get caught out in the rain
But that's a risk I'm willing to take
Experience has taught me not to trust
To lock the door and make sure that it never opens up
Treating anyone that tries to love me like stranger
But what's living without a little danger?
[Instrumental]
'Cause optimism isn't for the faint of heart
You won't hit the bullseye if you never throw the dart
If you go outside you might get bitten by a snake
But that's a risk I'm willing to take
That's a risk I'm willing to take
