WORDS BEFORE MUSIC
An AI song writer that starts with your story.
Turn an idea into lyrics with Tunefable’s AI song writer. Choose a genre, mood, and language, then edit the draft for free. Generate audio with a paid plan when the words feel right.
Start with a moment you can picture: a kitchen after a goodbye, a late train home, or a birthday everyone remembers. Give the writer those details, then keep the lines that sound like you. You control the words before they become a song.
How the writing pass works
- Start from an idea, or switch to Your lyrics if the verses exist.
- Set genre, mood, and language so the draft matches the song you want.
- Edit anything that sounds generic. Keep names and facts you care about.
- Subscribe only when the lyrics are ready for a private MP3.
Writing and editing stay free. Audio generation uses credits. We do not publish to streaming stores or offer a public lyrics host.
From a specific idea to a stronger lyric
A useful brief names the scene, the feeling, and the sound. Instead of “write a sad song,” try this:
Write a quiet indie song about moving away from Cedar Street. Include packing the kitchen at midnight and leaving a spare key with a friend. Keep the chorus hopeful, with short lines and everyday language.
An example of a more personal chorus
Illustrative lyrics, written for this guide:
The kitchen light is all I leave,
A little gold on Cedar Street.
You keep the key; I’ll keep the miles,
And come back with a different smile.
The street, light, and spare key give the feeling a setting. When editing your draft, replace a general line like “I miss you” with something the listener can picture. Read it aloud, shorten crowded lines, and keep one phrase worth repeating in the chorus.
Before you turn the lyrics into music
Can I change what the AI writes?
Yes. Review and edit the draft before generating audio. Check names, facts, pronunciation, and whether the words sound natural when spoken. Your first draft is a starting point.
What if I already wrote the lyrics?
Use lyrics to song to start with your existing verses. For a first draft from an idea, you can also use the lyrics generator.
How do I write for a particular occasion?
Give the writer the person, occasion, and a shared memory. Follow the birthday song guide for a named gift, or the Darija song guide for language and musical-style tips.
What is free, and when do I pay?
Writing and editing lyrics is free. Generating audio requires a paid plan: Premium is $9.99 for 10 credits per billing period. A 30-second song uses 1 credit; a two-minute song uses 4. Listen to and download completed songs from your private library.
