Tell Me A Story Lyrics

[Verse 1: dodie]
Tell me a story
About a girl
She doesn't like winter
Her hair is in curls

[Interlude: Whistling]

[Verse 2: dodie]
What about this one
With her head in a book?
If you ask her to listen
She might give you a look

[Interlude: Whistling]

[Chorus: dodie & Evan Edingers]
I am a sheet of paper
Give me some coloured pens
I don't mind if you go over the edges
Did you know that we all just love to play pretend?

[Interlude: Whistling]

[Verse 3: dodie]
Take her to Friday
Just don't say goodbye
Watch how she dances
With her hands to the sky
[Interlude: Whistling]

[Verse 4: dodie]
I'll tell you a secret
One isn't enough
Do you think you can tell
That I'm always in love?

[Interlude: Whistling]

[Chorus: dodie & Evan Edinger]
I am a sheet of paper
Give me some coloured pens
I don't kind of you go over the edges
Did you know that we all just love to play pretend?

[Outro: Whistling]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
