The Idea of You

Lyrics

[Verse] I'm in love with your idea I find you in the strangest places Cats the color of your hair Your frame in other people's faces Were I as hollow as I feel I'd fly to you, find where you are Drinking coffee, washing clothes Or sleeping in a moving car [Chorus] I'm standing on a keener edge I'm sticking pushpins in a map My free will is coaxing me off the ledge Soon I may be sleeping, head in your lap [Verse] And now you're in my eyes like a rifle sight I think I see you everywhere We're riding slow through Iowa It smells like country music here Now I'm so in love with your idea I could live inside one single kiss Lips like pillows, soft and firm And I'm oh so tired of this [Chorus] I'm standing on a keener edge I'm sticking pushpins in a map My free will is coaxing me off the ledge Soon I'll be sleeping, head in your lap [Solo] [Chorus] I'm standing on a keener edge I'm sticking pushpins in a map My free will is coaxing me off the ledge Soon I'll be sleeping, head in your lap
