I don't want another
Heartbreak on my record
You insist on
Spending all my time
Explaining away
All these things we're doing
Why is it so hard
For me to cut these ties?

I don't want to fall in love with an idea
Na na na
Cast me out and then reel me back in
Na na na
Cause you change every day
And I run for the hills
But somehow I stay

I don't want to fall in love no more
With an idea
An idea of you
Baby
An idea of you

Better take a step back
To put things in perspective
You tell yourself
A million little lies

I gave you my heart
On a silver platter
You can put me on a pedestal
I see through your eyes

I don't want to fall in love with an idea
Na na na
Cast me out and then reel me back in
Na na na
Cause you change every day
And I run for the hills
But somehow I stay

I don't want to fall in love no more
With an idea
An idea of you
Baby
An idea of you
Don't fall in love
Stop playing games
An idea of you
Don't fall in love
Stop playing games
An idea of you

I can see through your eyes
All these lies
Through your eyes
No no
An idea of you

Don't fall in love
An idea of you
Don't ask me baby
Fall in love
An idea of you
Don't ask me baby
