Outliers Video (MV)

I wasn't lying
When I told her she was beautiful
Perhaps to have bid adieu would have been
The more gentlemanly thing to do
But I was too busy escorting angels at the gala

I read in her book
The key to being successful
At any one thing is to invest
Ten-thousand hours of a
Focused energy it seemed
Real clear to me
I couldn't put her down
When she caught me
Red-handed downtown

Outlying, I'm not a lion
Time, is there still time
Now all I want to do is to
Spend my next ten-thousand
Hours with you

I was a burned-out firewood salesman
Considered an expert in sales
I could sell burned firewood after the fact
In this urn of ash is
All the money I earned
Before the market crash
They called me the lion, but I wasn't a lion

Can't you see me trying
Learning something new
Learning all about you
Wondering what you love to do
All my energy's focused on you and
I'm sure I sure made my fair share of mistakes
I'm trying to be your outlier
Something different, something new
Something you hold as if you always knew
It to be true

Now all I want to do is to
Spend my next ten-thousand
Hours with you

We can never grow past our mistakes
If we don't put in the time it takes
And this time I sure made my
Fair share of mistakes
I'm not a lion
I'm still trying
Is there still time to be your
Outlier
