[Verse 1]
I didn't want to know
I just didn't want to know
Best to keep things in the shallow end
Cause I never quite learned how to swim

I just didn't want to know
(didn't want, didn't want)

[Pre-Chorus:]
Close my eyes just to look at you
Taken by this seamless vision
I close my eyes
Ignore the smoke
Ignore the smoke
Ignore the smoke

[Chorus:]
Call an Optimist, she's turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call an Optimist, she's turning blue
While I just sit and stare at you

[Verse 2]
Because I don't want to know
I didn't want to know
I just didn't want to know
I just didn't want
[Pre-Chorus:]
Mistook the nods for an approval
Just ignore the smoke and smile

[Chorus:]
Call an Optimist, she's turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call an Optimist, she's turning blue
Such a perfect color for your eyes
Call an Optimist, she's turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call an Optimist, she's turning blue
While I just sit and stare at you

I don't want to know
