The Idea Of You lyrics

I built you in my mind, piece by piece A perfect picture of who I thought you'd be Every glance, every touch, feels so real, so real, just like a fever dream And it feels like if I get any closer Then I might stay here forever But I try not to forget, that it's all in my head It's the story I imagine, the part You play A wall of clouds, where you stand so tall But you're not real, you're not there at all I'm chasing a shadow, a dream I drew Falling in love with the idea of you, of you, of you, of you Falling in love with the idea of you, of you, of you, of you Falling in love with the idea of you It's bittersweet, this world l've made A beautiful lie where I feel safe But someday I'll wake and leave it I'll stop loving a love I'll never know And it feels like if I get any closer Then I might stay here forever But I try not to forget, that it's all in my head It's the story I imagine, the part You play A wall of clouds, where you stand so tall But you're not real, you're not there at all I'm chasing a shadow, a dream I drew Falling in love with the idea of you, of you, of you, of you Falling in love with the idea of you, of you, of you, of you Falling in love with the idea of you
