“Tell Me” is about Gyo trying to figure out what’s on the mind of his mysterious muse. Hazily circling around her like an obvious admirer. He’s aware of the fact he might have to change in order to remain alluring. Gyo questions whether he should keep wondering how and why he should to do this, or m...
[Chorus 1]
Tell me what is on your mind
Tell me what it is right now, come on
Tell me what is on your mind
Tell me what it is right now, come on
[Verse 1]
I've got to make a move towards you (Tell me what is on your mind)
Or it’ll linger on forever (Tell me what it is right now)
My addiction to retreat must be over (Tell me what I gotta do)
I'm not your average guy
[Chorus 2]
Tell me what is on your mind, tell me what it is
Tell me what is on your mind, and I'll show you what to do
[Verse 2]
Can you teach me how you love me (Tell me what is on your mind)
Cuz on my own I’m still not ready (Tell me what it is right now)
The obsession of staring must be over (Tell me what I gotta do)
You just make me high
[Chorus 3]
Tell me what is on your mind, tell me what it is
Tell me what is on your mind, and I'll show you what to do
[Bridge 1]
And I am the one, who's gotta change himself
Then at least just guide me how, or I'll be moving on
And I am the one, who needs to please you dear
Then let me figure out, how to end this game
[Chorus 4]
Tell me what is on your mind, tell me what it is
Tell me what is on your mind, and I'll show you what to do
Tell me what is on your mind, tell me what it is
[Outro]
Tell me what is on your mind
Tell me what it is right now, come on (Tell me right now)
Tell me what is on your mind
Tell me what it is right now, come on (Tell me right now)
Tell me what is on your mind
Tell me what it is right now, come on (Tell me right now)
Tell Me was written by Gyo Kretz.
Tell Me was produced by Shai Solan & Gyo Kretz.
When I wrote ‘Tell Me’, I was still a student at the Amsterdam University of the Arts.
‘Tell Me’ is one of the first songs from which I was sure I wanted to release via official channels. I released it independently and to this day I still get very excited when I’m about to perform the song with my band.
Back then, I was experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions with regards to finding love. A continuous struggle to find balance in my feelings towards my muse. It drove me mad not knowing how my love back then thought about our relationship
Making the song went surprisingly smooth. It was clear as day on how I wanted this song to sound like. I am very satisfied with the result and proud of how the production got shaped.
