Dodie Clark - From Braces To Lipstick Lyrics
Muddy handprints and wonky teeth
A promise made that I know I will keep
Even though it was made
In those careless days
Of naivety
And contracts signed
A closer pair you will never find
Good luck trying
And the reason why it's taken me so long
To write such a mediocre song is because
I'll never be able to show you how proud I am
We've gone from braces to lipstick
From bikes to the road
From boyfriend to boyfriend I've watched you grow
Into the beautiful Alice I'm so proud to know;
I love you so
It's pretty clear that we are strong
I'd like to say the wedding is still on!
But in all sincerity, you're being here with me for life
And the red sofa bed is I don't know where
And the Now 69 album's not been played for years
But look at us now; we'd still do it if we could
And the reason why it's taken me so long
To write such a mediocre song is because
I'll never be able to show you how proud I am
We've gone from braces to lipstick
From bikes to the road
From doodles and stories to coursework on our own
From boyfriend to boyfriend I've watched you grow
Into the beautiful Alice I'm so proud to know;
I love you so
And we're certainly not bluetooth buddies anymore
And I can't just gather up my Pj's and knock on your door
And my phone doesn't ring to tell me you're 5 minutes away
But Alice Kristina Webb, you're here to stay
And the reason why it's taken me so long
To write such a mediocre song is because
I'll never be able to show you how proud I am
We've gone from braces to lipstick
From bikes to the road
From doodles and stories to coursework on our own
From boyfriend to boyfriend I've watched you grow
Into the beautiful Alice I'm so proud to know;
I love you so

Dodie Clark From Braces To Lipstick Comments
....after reading her book this is so sad
I have known the words to this song since I was 12. 7 years later I still do. 🤷🏻♂️
Happy (very late for 18) birthday to Alice! I think you turn 25 today, another great milestone! Have fun!
Happy extremely late Birthday, Alice!
I wonder if they are still friends?
Tell her happy birthday! Nice video.
Hapy birday Alice
7 years late but happy birthday Alice
Aww lil dodie!
Happy Birthday allice of 7 years ago!!!!!!!
miss dorothy miranda clark,you've made me cry yet again,nearly 7 years since this song was written.
The fact that they don’t speak anymore is actually so upsetting. I wanna cry 😭😭😭😭
i have fallen in love with you
I’m sobbing
You should know that you are very, very lucky to have a friend like this. I left the local public school last year and am now homeschooled after some emotional trauma I went through, and it is so lonely. I don't want to go back to the public school, because I'm afraid that what happened last year will happen again. I really want a best friend, someone I can take funny pictures with and giggle with them at sleepovers until midnight, or write a sweet song to for their birthday. I have a group of friends, but most of them are a bit younger than me, and I can't connect very deeply with any of them because of the age and personality differences. I haven't had someone outside of my immediate family in my room for months and months. This is a feeling I have never known, but one that I want to know so badly. Anyone who does know this should hold on to it. I'll keep looking though, so hopefully one day I can update this comment and inform you that I've found a best friend. But until then I'll keep on hoping :)
I'm seeing her in concert for the first time ever tomorrow night. I had to come back and rewatch the first video i ever saw of hers and I can't believe it's been 6 years since I found her. She's come so far and I can't even fathom the fact that i'll be seeing her tomorrow. Wow. <3
I have fallen in love with you! I can't help it, you were actually one of my first ever crushes.
I have a best friend who I have known since preschool and she is turning 16 in a month and this song is just so relatable with us. I'm so proud and thankful to have been able to watch her grow into the insanely beautiful young woman that I know today
Weird to think her friend is 24 now
1:14 she looks exactly how sb2e does now in 2018.. wow
ARE THEY STILL FRIENDS?
happy belated 24th birthday alice!! hehe i’m 6 years late lol
Happy bday sorry its like six years late
I just realised that my mum is called Alice and her birthday is 12th July as well lmao
I'm listening to this song on a playlist and it just so happens to be July 12. Lol
Every July 12th I come back
Happy bday Alice 😂
Your voice is an Angels. I love this and won’t be able to not listen to you!
Get you a best friend like Dodie
2018. Still friends? That would be amazing❤️
https://youtu.be/pamEyLJ3h4c
in this video she says “best friend at the time” 😭😭😭😭😭
I wish I could write lyrics like Dodie! She's so sweet and real!
Pless! Anyone in 2018 who can confirm their friendship!??
Doddiieeee are you still friends???? Please tell me you are....
My sister has the same birthday as her!!
anyone watching in 2018
happy birthday Alice
OH MY GOD ALICE IM CRYING NO GOD WHY
this is still one of my favourite songs of yours. it's so genuine, real, and emotional. i love it so much 💕
Gotta miss those 480p vids
Happy 6 Year Late Birthday!!!
My birthday is on July 12th too!
If you read the book you would know😰
This made me cry because I lost my first best friend, and I know that no matter how proud I am of him I'll never get to see him grow old. I'll never get to grow old with him.
July the 12 is my birthday
it's so cool to look back at how much her channel has grown
I will never get over this song
This made me cry. For some reason all of your original songs bring tears to My eyes.
This makes me cry because i haven't seen my best friend for 1 year
I bet in the middle of one of her takes dodie got a text from alice saying that she was five minutes away and dodie just burst out laughing.
I wish I had a best friend like this
Happy birthday Alice!
It's probably late but oh well
I remember my (at the time) best friend sending this to me and telling me that this is how she felt about me.... not long after that she told me she didn't want any contact with me at all. Still though, I love this song, and it just reminds me of a time in my life where my only happiness was my best friend. Great song.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICE SORRY IM FIVE YEARS LATE
Happy five-year-and-almost-a-half-ago-18th Birthday, Alice!
I wish I had a friendship like this.
Happy real late birthday!!!!!
I just read her book and now this is a sad song .

i can’t even get a text back from my best friend
You should duet with Zoella
THATS MY BIRTHDAY TOO!!!
it’s five years after this was first posted and i’m crying over this song oh my gosh
does anybody know the chords for this?
I’ve just read about Alice in her new book
this is adorable
crying knowing dodie just performed a sold out 2500 cap venue and alice was there :)
Hey Alice, happy birthday! Hope it's not too late!!
This reminds me of my best friend we've been best friends since we were 4 years old and we've been through everything together and nothing could ever separate us not even me moving a good 4 hours away has made our friendship fade only made it stronger we've seen each other at our worst moments and still one of the only people who has ever seen me cry I'm so proud of her even thought I hardly ever say so
Wow that was a lot of words
I’m crying why is this so beautiful it’s not fair.
i’m 5 years late but happy birthday alice lmao
only 5 years late no big deal
MY BIRTHDAY IS ON THE 12 OF JULY!!!!

For those wondering;
They are still friends, a little bit ago Dodie posted on her Snapchat story, and they were face timing
This is such a beautiful song
I'm not crying, your crying ;-;
this sounds like it could be in a musical
Must be nice to have a friend like dodie
Happy 1/2 a month and 5 year late birthday alice
I wonder if this is the girl the song "she" was written about.
why the fuck are you so perfect? i swear almost every human in earth that watches your videos is in love with you,including me
Five years later and this song has me all up in my emotions
OMG I was watching through all your old vid's and I have the same birthday as ALICE! July 12th! xD
Oh my gosh, I was also born on July 12...
