Story behind the song
this is not finished yet....but i'm happy with this as a demo. this feels like it'll become a very important song to me. the lryics came in a flash, all at once... the music took a bit more time.
Lyrics
Sweet Melody
V1
i've been walking alone
down a dark and windy road
yeah, i know
the sun doesn't grow here
V2
i've been singin' along
like a know this old song
truth be told
i don't know the verses, oh no no
V3
I've been standing up tall
every time i've
fallen down
i ain't learned my lesson, oh no no
V4
i've been raked through the coals
lord, it's humbled my soul
yeah i know
i ain't no one special, oh no on
Chorus
but i hear a sweet melody
starts major but hits the minor key
when it swings low
i' know that my soul will find a home
V5
i got sick of the toss
of the coin so i bought
me a cross
i wear it and wonder why why why
V6
i get carried away
by the question of faith
versus loss
mercy and cruelty
V7
i've been hanging around
on the inside upside down
dont' you know
things are looking up or is it ground
V8
i've been wounded in doubt
spritual drought,
lingers on
i grow more thirsty, yeah yeah yeah
ch 2
I hear a sweet melody
starts major but hits the minor key
when it swings low
i know my soul will find a home
when i let go....
bridge: when i let go (x's 4)
chorus 3
I hear a sweet melody
I hear a sweet melody
I hear a sweet melody
la da da
la da da
