[I’m Gonna Tell You… — Lily]
[Key: Minor]
[Tempo: 100 BPM]
[Verse 1 – soft piano + airy pad, intimate tone]
You know… I try to run from anything that could hold me down
I’ve been through too many heartbreaks, I won’t go back to that place
Built my walls, told myself I wouldn’t fall again
But then you showed up… and everything changed
[Pre-Chorus – subtle strings + heartbeat bass]
And with you it feels so different
In the way you look at me, I feel it
Your care
Your touch
Your love for me
[Chorus – emotional drop + piano + deep bass + high note lift]
I’m gonna tell you…
I’m scared to love
I know you know it, I know that I know it
And everybody knows it too
But I’m afraid I’ll hurt you
Be just another mistake
The one you’ll regret forever
The worst choice you ever made
And it hurts…
God, it hurts (yeah)
[Verse 2 – soft beat + guitar plucks + warm texture]
You talk about your shows and all those anime scenes
I don’t understand them, but I still try to keep them in my mind
And every time I see something that feels like your world
It pulls me back to you… every single time (back to you)
You love your games, that whole nerd universe
And I get lost in melodies and songs
Two different worlds, so far apart
But somehow… we still belong
[Pre-Chorus – build with harmonies]
And when I start thinking ’bout the future
My chest tightens, I can’t breathe (can’t breathe)
’Cause everything good always fades away
And I don’t know if you’ll stay with me
[Chorus – fuller instrumental + layered vocals]
I’m gonna tell you…
I’m scared to love
I know you know it, I know that I know it
And everybody knows it too
But I’m afraid I’ll hurt you
Be just another mistake
The one you’ll regret forever
The worst choice you ever made
And it hurts…
(I know, I know…)
God, it hurts
[Bridge – stripped piano → vocal rise → climax]
If I give you my heart… would you stay?
If I fall apart… would you hold me? (hold me)
Tell me now… don’t let me drown
’Cause I’ve been lost before
And I don’t wanna lose myself again
But when it’s you…
I almost let it all happen (oh)
[Final Chorus – full instrumental + high note + emotional peak]
I’m gonna tell you…
(Oh, I’m scared…)
I’m scared to love
But I want you, I need you (need you)
Even if it tears me apart
If it’s gonna hurt, let it be with you
If I fall, then let me try
Be the mistake that was worth it all
Not just another goodbye
And it hurts… (it hurts)
But maybe…
This is love
