    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)
