"Idea Of You" lyrics

"Idea Of You"

After school sitting on my front step
I remember waiting for you to walk past
You're just a dream to a little kid
But I'll catch up to you one day
And we'll laugh how things have changed
You never dreamed we'd end up this way
But I dreamed about it every day
I'm not gonna pull your hair

I fall so hard
Inside the idea of you
That's why with you
Can't say what I mean
Wanna stay, but I
Think I'm getting outta here
I fall so hard
Inside the idea of you

I stumble, fall
In front of you and all your friends
You pick me up
You brush me off
I grin, but I wanna disappear
One day, when you fall for me, babe
And I remember this day
And I won't brush you off, baby
And I'm not gonna
Kick you in your shins

I fall so hard
Inside the idea of you
That's why with you
Can't say what I mean
Wanna stay, but I
Think I'm getting outta here
I fall so hard
Inside the idea of you

Maybe one day
I'll be your king 'cause you'll be my queen
In the back seat
Of a parked car
The stars and the moon only witness
I'm dreaming
I know that
But I feel it as real as laughing
And I wake up
When I wake up
You're gone, gone, gone
Yeah

You're gone, gone, gone
Yeah

I fall so hard
Inside the idea of you
That's why with you
Can't say what I mean
Wanna stay, but I
Think I'm getting outta here
I fall so hard
Inside the idea of you

I stumble, fall
In front of you and all your cool friends
You pick me up
You brush me off
I grin, but I wanna disappear
One day, when you fall for me
And then I'll remember this day
And I won't brush you off, baby
And I'm not gonna pull your hair
