China Doll Lyrics

Everything I want I have
Money, notoriety, and rivieras
I even think I found god
In the flash bulbs of the pretty cameras
Pretty cameras, pretty cameras
Am I glamorous tell me, am I glamorous?

Hello hello
C-can you hear me
I can be your china doll 
If you want to see me fall
Boy your so dope 
your love is deadly
Tell me life is beautiful
They all think I have it all
I'm nothing without you
All my dreams and all the lights mean 
Nothing without you

Summertime is nice and hot
And my life is sweet like vanilla is
Gold and silver line in my heart
Burned into to my brain are all these stolen images
Stolen images baby stolen images
Can you picture it?
Babe the life we could've lived

Hello hello
C-can you hear me
I can be your china doll 
If you like to see me fall
Boy your so dope
your love is deadly
Tell me life is beautiful
Then I'll think I have it all
I'm nothing without you
All my dreams and all the lights mean 
Nothing without you

We were two kids just trying to get out
Live on the dark side of the american dream
We would dance all night
Play our music loud
When we grew up nothing was what it seemed

Hello hello
C-can you hear me
I can be your china doll 
If you like to see me fall
Boy your so dope so dope
your love is deadly
Tell me life is beautiful
They think I have it all
I'm nothing without you
All my dreams and all the lights mean 
Nothing without you

Hello hello
C-can you hear me
I can be your china doll
If you like to see me fall
Boy your so dope so dope
your love is deadly
Tell me life is beautiful
They think I have it all
I'm nothing without you

All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you

All my dreams and all the lights mean 
Nothing if I can't have you

Cover art for China Doll lyrics by Lana Del Rey

I love how lizzy created a song that feel's very nostalgic. For some reason this one particular song makes me think of Valley of the Dolls.

Memory

I kind of do think of valley of the dolls when I hear this too.

Cover art for China Doll lyrics by Lana Del Rey

This song is officially titled "Without You"

Everything I want I have: Money, notoriety, rivieras. I even think I found God In the flash bulbs of your pretty cameras, Pretty cameras, pretty cameras. Am I glamorous? Baby, am I glamorous?

Hello? Hello? Can you hear me? I can be your china doll If you want to see me fall. Boy your so dope, your love is deadly. Tell me life is beautiful, They all think I have it all. I am nothing without you. All my dreams and all the lights mean Nothing without you.

Summertime is nice and hot, And my life is sweet like vanilla is. Gold and silver line my heart But burned into to my brain all these stolen images, Stolen images, baby, stolen images. Can you picture this What a life we could've lived?

Hello? Hello? Can you hear me? I can be your china doll If you want to see me fall. Boy your so dope, your love is deadly. Tell me life is beautiful, They all think I have it all. I am nothing without you. All my dreams and all the lights mean Nothing without you.

We were two kids, just tryin to get out, Live on the dark side of the American dream. We would stay out late, play our music loud, When we grew up nothing was what it seemed.

Hello? Hello? Can you hear me? I can be your china doll If you want to see me fall. Boy your so dope, (so dope) your love is deadly. Tell me life is beautiful, They all think I have it all. I am nothing without you. All my dreams and all the lights mean Nothing without you.

All my dreams and all the lights mean Nothing if I can't have you.

Lyric Correction

Boy you're so dope*

Thank you for the corrections. Excited to hear the finalized version. Always thought the fan title was more appealing then the over used plain Jane boring without you title.
