Gatie told Rolling Stone about the song's inspiration: “Everyone’s been in that situation where they weren’t sure if they should confess their feelings or keep it to themselves, and most of the time you regret not saying how you feel.”
The song is a breezy, sex & springtime-fresh midtempo track, with Gatie’s sparkling vocals caressing the sparse beat from producers DannyBoyStyles and Sam Wish.[3]
The music video was released on March 3, 2020, directed by Justin Abernethy. It featured Gatie sitting alone at a diner, reflected on a love interest.[4]
And clips have a nostalgic vibe, set in an American diner, a bowling alley and a retro car. Think dimmed neon lighting, seamless transitions and plenty of couples making and breaking.[5]
Dutch Future House DJ and producer Don Diablo remixed the track "What If I Told You That I Love You" on April 4, 2020.[6]
