Sometimes I, I go back
To skipping stones, flashlight on
My red backpack
Thought I could slide
Down the milky way
My dog could talk, my toys could walk
And I'd fly someday
Whoah, I miss it (miss it)
Ooh, the optimystic
Sunset renegades, lover's lane
Staying crazy, kept us baby
From going insane
Before we knew 'bout this big bad world
No left and right, I'd hold you tight
Just you and me, girl
Whoah, I miss it (miss it)
Ooh, the optimystic, yeah
Ooh, the optimystic
Do you hear it calling? (Do you hear it calling?)
Come along if you're coming (come along if you're coming)
Do you hear it calling? (Do you hear it calling?)
Come along if you're coming (come along, come along)
Ooh, don't miss it (miss it)
Ooh, just listen (listen)
Ooh, the optimystic
So let's get back to skipping stones
Put that flashlight in my face and this guitar on
Now I'm flying, yes indeed
'Cause I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be
Whoah, I miss it (miss it)
Ooh, the optimystic
