The Idea Of Her lyrics – Ali Gatie
[Intro]
No, no-no, no-no, no-no, no
[Verse 1]
She was the one, I had my reasons
She gave me somethin’, somethin’ to believe in
Sleepless at night, it’s quarter to three
I’m having cold, cold sweats, I need some relief
She was my one drug, show up when I’m low
She got me out of time, I hate feelin’ outta control
She was my first love, I can’t let her go
She was my very own caramel Marilyn Monroe
[Chorus]
I close my eyes and I dream
Saw what I wanted to see
I remember back when lifе was a blur (When life was a blur)
I forced mysеlf to believe
That she was perfect for me
I fell in love with the idea of her (I fell in love with the idea of her)
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I fell in love with the idea of her (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Lied to myself, ignored all the warnings
I knew what it was, but I cannot love the girl she’s becoming
Now that I’ve realized, I wasn’t ready for it (Ready)
I take the blame, I tried to change the person she was
[Chorus]
I close my eyes and I dream
Saw what I wanted to see
I remember back when life was a blur (When life was a blur)
I forced myself to believe
That she was perfect for me
I fell in love with the idea of her (I fell in love with the idea of her)
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I fell in love with the idea of her (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I fell in love, I fell in love (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Ooh, ooh, I fell in love with the idea of her (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Chorus]
I close my eyes and I dream
Saw what I wanted to see
I remember back when life was a blur
I forced myself to believe
That she was perfect for me
I fell in love with the idea of her
[Outro]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
No-no, no-no, no
I fell in love with the idea of her (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
