David Cook Lyrics

Here are the lyrics to Cook's brand new single, Time of My Life:


Time of My Life

I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it until I let go
Gave into love
And watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feeling my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
The time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
Keeping my feet on the ground
Arms open wide,
Face to the sun

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time,
This is the time of my life, my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time,
This is the time of my life,
This is the time of my life,
The time of my life,
Time of my life.

Here are the lyrics to a song that has not been released as of yet. It is believed that this song was part of that infamous second solo album that Cook had in the works before he got on Idol. The title is not known, but fans generally call it "Optimistic to a Fault".


Better Never Than Late - Optimistic To A Fault

Any second I would sing you to sleep with kind words in mind and hearts sewn to sleep.
Leave nothing to chance and everything behind.

Second chances pave the way to broken hearts.
This is the moment where I tell you that I’m falling apart
and I’m stuck in reverse between the same damn lies.

Oh no, there I go, optimistic to a fault
Go home, you can never go again
When anything at all is anything but you
I want nothing my dear
This always ends in tears.
You were my everything in all
You’re now my everywhere but here
This always ends in tears.

Second chances pave the way to broken hearts.
This is the moment where I tell you that I’m falling apart
and I’m stuck in reverse between the same damn lies.

But tossing pennies, making wishes to make it right
Anther lonely day, another lonely night
And I would give anything if you would only pick up the phone

Oh no, there I go, optimistic to a fault
Go home, you can never go again
When anything at all is anything but you
I want nothing my dear
This always ends in tears.
You were my everything in all
...




Not Around from Axiom - The High School Recordings

Life goes on or so they say
But I can’t let it go
Can’t seem to say goodbye to all the good friends that I know

Letting go
Letting go

It’s time to go but before I do
I gotta let you know
You been a friend to the en
Through everything thick and thin
And I can’t thank you enough
But it’s time for our lives to begin
So now our last goodbye it seems as your tears stream to the ground
But remember I’ll never forget you
Even though you’re not around

No more hugs, no more tears but the memories will live on
Yeah
Oh the smiles
Last for miles
And I’ll see you even after you’re gone

Letting go
Letting you know
It’s time to go but before I do
I gotta let you know
You been a friend to the end
Through everything thick and thin
And I can’t thank you enough
But it’s time for our lives to begin
So now our last goodbye it seems as your tears stream to the ground
Yeah..
But remember I’ll never forget you
Even though you’re not around
Even though you’re not around
Even though you’re not around

Life goes on or so they say
But I can’t let it go..
