This is the intro to the song
This is the intro to the song
It comes in soft and sets the tone
This is the intro to the song
The verse is where the story begins
The heart of the song to bring you in
It tells a tale, it sets the scene
It shares emotion and develops the theme
Here is the prechorus
It’s building and building
The music is changing
It is transitioning, break!
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
The verse comes back with something new
Another piece of the story, just for you
It all ties in to when the story began
The verses really help you understand
Here is the prechorus
It’s building and building
The music is changing
It is transitioning, break!
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
Now the bridge it takes you somewhere new
A different vibe, a little slower, a change in view
The bridge is short, a twist near the end
And it breaks the flow before the chorus comes in
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the chorus, the part that repeats
It’s always gonna stick in your memory
This is the outro, it’s finally here
The end of the song is drawing near
It wraps it up and winds it down
Now, it’s the end of the song, the song ends now.
