(原詩)

Never seen her glowing
All that bright she's throwing
Like some aurora
From her head, it's growing
Reaching to the ground
And all around like a Navajo blanket
Never heard her singing
Now she's gently ringing
Like copper wind chimes
What on earth is
Bringing up this stream?
The cat who got the cream
Is licking her lips
And smiling like her Cheshire cousin

She claims she's found a way
To make her own light
All you do is smile,
You banish the night

She says she's burning
With optimism's flames, away, away
She says she's burning up
All her guilts and shames, away, away
She says she's burning
With optimism's flames, away, away
She says she's burning up
Burning up

Now you see I'm smiling
Back to juveniling
I learnt her lesson,
In like flint and styling
All the world is neatly curled
Around my littlest finger
I can't stop this grinning
So assume I'm winning
Threw pessimism in the air,
It's spinning
Crashing to the floor and nevermore
Will it lure me away
With sweets and shiny things
Just like a magpie

She claims she's found a way
To make her own light
All you do is smile,
You banish the night

She says she's burning
With optimism's flames, away, away
She says she's burning up
All her guilts and shames, away, away
She says she's burning
With optimism's flames, away, away
She says she's burning up
She's burning up

Now every bird and bee,
Just fuel the fire for me
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Now every closing door
Just fan the flames some more
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah

She claims she's found a way
To make her own light
All you do is smile,
You banish the night

She says she's burning
With optimism's flames, away
She says she's burning up
All her guilts and shames, yeah
She says she's burning
With optimism, optimism's flames, hey
She says she's burning up
Burning up
Burning up

Now I'm thinking okay
I'm turning night into day
