Sweet Optimism from Sweet Optimism by Alun Parry

She don't let life get in the way of a good time

Life get in the way

She's not the kind to waste her time on a headline

It won't ruin her day

If providence should play with her

She just joins in the game

Noone's putting out that flame



We all need hope

We all fall down

We all need faith

To hold our ground

We all need time

To fool around

And sweet optimism



We all need love

To make us whole

We all need heart

And rock and roll

We all need friends

To soothe the soul

And sweet optimism



Sweet optimism, sweet optimism, sweet optimism



It's not her goal to change the way that you see her

She wouldn't try

Won't trade her soul to lose her freedom to be her

It wouldn't fly

She knows authenticity will always be her guide

Staying true to what's inside





We all need hope

We all fall down

We all need faith

To hold our ground

We all need time

To fool around

And sweet optimism



We all need love

To make us whole

We all need heart

And rock and roll

We all need friends

To soothe the soul

And sweet optimism



Sweet optimism, sweet optimism, sweet optimism



We all need hope

We all fall down

We all need faith

To hold our ground

We all need time

To fool around

And sweet optimism



We all need love

To make us whole

We all need heart

And rock and roll

We all need friends

To soothe the soul

And sweet optimism



Sweet optimism, sweet optimism, sweet optimism
