The Thought of Being Free Has Entered Many Minds

"The beauty of the world ... has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder."

Argh.


I started writing a song earlier this evening hoping the words were not crap, but liking the melody very much. I looked over it before bed and realized that the words were actually all right, but that I had forgotten the melody. I used to be so anal about recording little snippets of anything I wrote so that nothing would be lost, but I began to realize that I never forgot the tune. I guess that I tend to write melodies against the chords so the chords contain a shadow of what i supposed to be singing. Unfortunately, I wrote this tune wandering around the house and put chords to it later so the guitar bit only adds depth to the melody, but it does not harmonize with it in any way. The only tune I can come up with is the last three notes Glasgow Love Theme from Love Actually which, beyond not being helpful at all, is just confusing me all the more. I am so frustrated!
