Tellin’ U
Sidibe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I could choose all my tomorrows
I'd find a way to spend them with you
We're fated, babe, to be together
Let's make this dance go on forever

I'm tellin' you, you're beautiful
That's what you are (that's what you are)
I'm tellin' you, so beautiful
You really are (that's what you are)

You're so fly with it 'cause you just get it
Damn, you're a star
Been so long and I'm so turned on
'Cause I love who you are

You gotta be with me tomorrow
And honestly the following day
I wanna see the way that you look at me
With moonlight all over your face

I'm tellin' you, you're beautiful
That's what you are (that's what you are)
I'm tellin' you, so beautiful
You really are (that's what you are)

You're so fly with it 'cause you just get it
Damn, you're a star
Been so long and I'm so turned on
'Cause I love who you are

I'm tellin' you, you're beautiful
That's what you are (that's what you are)
I'm tellin' you, so beautiful
You really are (that's what you are)

You're so fly with it 'cause you just get it
Damn, you're a star
Been so long and I'm so turned on
'Cause I love who you are

You're so fly with it 'cause you just get it
Damn, you're a star
Been so long and I'm so turned on
'Cause I love who you are

You're so fly with it 'cause you just get it
Damn, you're a star




Been so long and I'm so turned on
'Cause I love who you are
