She: Lyrics and performance by Dodie Clark
Media creator: doddleoddle
Am I allowed... to look at her like that?
Could it be wrong, when she's just so nice to look at?
And she smells like lemongrass and sleep,
She tastes like apple juice and peach.
You would find her in a polaroid picture.
And she... means everything to me.
I'd never tell
No, I'd never say a word
And oh, it aches
But it feels oddly good to hurt.
And she smells like lemongrass and sleep,
She tastes like apple juice and peach.
You would find her in a polaroid picture.
And she... means everything to me.
And I'll be okay
Admiring from afar
Cause even when she's next to me we could not be more far apart
Cause she tastes like birthday cake and story time and fall...
But to her...
I taste of nothing at all.
Cause she smells like lemongrass and sleep.
She tastes like apple juice and peach.
You would find her in a polaroid picture.
...And she means everything to me.
Yes, she means everything to me.
And she means everything to me.
