7/20/2016 alternate lyrics

Sitting on my front step again
waiting for you to walk by with your friends
maybe you notice this little kid
he likes it the way you turn and smile at him
hope some day when you fall for me girl
leaving the flowers on your combat boots
you're not gonna walk away you know
and I'm not gonna pull your hair

I fall so hard inside the idea of you
that's why with you I 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 all I wanna do is disappear
one day when you fall for me girl
and I know that day's gonna come
I'm not gonna brush you off no no
and I'm not gonna kick you in your shin

I fall so hard inside the idea of you
that's why with you I 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

You notice
laid out
and oh look grass
the stars are out
I wonder
if it was different
if I was older
if you'd notice more
then it's Fall out
in the city
you live in
and I have you with me
I wake up
I wake up
and you gone gone gone yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah gone gone gone yeah yeah yeah
I fall so hard inside the idea of you
that's why with you I 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

All grown up and moved away
and I wanna go back to do that day
down an old road man you've gotten gray
and I'm thinking bout fateful day
I wonder when you looked back
at what was your prize
do you ever think about me
now that little kid who looked up with blue eye
that he'd never pulled your hair
Idea of You
main lyrics
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 catch up to you one day
and we laugh how things have changed
you never dreamed we'd end up this way, oh
but I dreamed about it every day
and I'm not gonna pull your hair

[CHORUS]
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 out of here
I fall so hard inside the idea of you


And I stumble, fall in
front of you and all your friends
you pick me up and brush me off again
but I wanna disappear
one day when you fall for me, babe
and I remember this day
I won't brush you off, baby
and I'm not gonna kick you in your shin

[CHORUS]

Well, maybe
well, one day
I'll be your king 'cause you'll be my queen
the back seat
of a parked car
the stars and moon the only witness
I'm dreaming
I know that
but I feel it as real as laughing
I wake up
when I wake up
you're gone, gone, gone, yeah

I'm gone, gone, gone, yeah

[CHORUS]

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