A Pretty Girl Is Like A Melody

(album: Tell Me Why - 1964)

I never get tired of butterflies in my stomach
And I never get used to calling girls on the phone
I say I hate crushes, but really I love it
Having someone there's better than being alone
Alone, go it alone

'Cause a pretty girl is like a melody
It hits you when you're awake, gets you when you're asleep
And I can't get this song out of my head
I think of her face and I sing myself to bed
I sing myself to bed

I never get tired of valentines in my pocket
And I never get used to having someone to hold
I say I hate girlfriends, but really I love them
Having someone there's better than being alone
Alone, go it alone

'Cause a pretty girl is like a melody
It hits you when you're awake, gets you when you're asleep
And I can't get this song out of my head
I think of her face and I sing myself to bed
I sing myself to bed

Please three chords don't fail me now
I'm trying to tell a girl that I love her
Tried taking walks and holding hands
But she still seems to think that it's over
I just want to be happy again
She just wants to hang out with her friends
Everywhere I want to be
She's still staring back at me again

Girl is like a melody
'Cause a girl is like a melody
'Cause a girl is like a melody
'Cause a girl is like a melody
'Cause a girl is like a melody
'Cause a girl is like a melody
And I can't get this song out of my head
I think of her face and I sing myself to bed
I sing myself to bed
I sing myself to bed
I sing myself to bed
