The idea of us

Yeah, I been lost in my mind, uh

Tryna find my way back to you, yeah

It’s the thought of us, divin’ too deep

Caught in the moment, but I can’t sleep

I chase the idea, love’s just a game

But I’m hurting, girl, I feel the pain

I’m sorry for the times I disappeared

Messin’ with your heart, girl, I fear

You deserve truth, not just a lie

But I’m afraid of what’s really inside

I love the idea of us, it’s all in my head

But when it gets real, I’m out instead

You deserve better, you know I see that

Even if I fall, I won’t be the one to smother that

Late nights, ghostin’ through your smile

Know I should stay, but it’s devourin’ me now

Your love’s a fire, I don’t wanna burn

But I hide away, ‘cause I don’t wanna learn

I’m sorry for the times I disappeared

Messin’ with your heart, girl, I fear

You deserve truth, not just a lie

But I’m afraid of what’s really inside

I love the idea of us, it’s all in my head

But when it gets real, I’m out instead

You deserve better, you know I see that

Even if I fall, I won’t be the one to smother that

Maybe I’m scared to let go, afraid of real love

But girl, I know you’re enough, more than enough

Can’t keep runnin’, can’t keep hidin’

Guess I’m just a coward, keep denyin’

I love the idea, but I gotta face the facts

You’re better than my fears, no turnin’ back

Sorry I let go too soon, girl, I was wrong

But deep down, I know I don’t belong

You deserve love that’s true and pure

I hope someday you find someone sure

Still wish I could stay, but I gotta be free

Sorry for the ghost, girl, I’m just a cowardly me
