Story Behind The Song

Song writing has a little mystery to me. How certain guitar chords chained together generate a feeling and words.

Song Description

Being overcome by the energy that helps create a song. Not sure of where it all comes from. The mystery of how it all comes together. Making something out of nothing.

Lyrics

Hold Down The Melody
Words and Music by John Masarone

Reeling within my art tonight
nothing comes too easily
with the spark that you get through to me
moves in like a symphony

Searching with my hands
feeling with my heart
it's always been such a mystery
starting not so naturally

Hold down the melody
the words thought so carefully
they take hold with all such harmony
sing their way to my soul

Hold down the melody
It all works out instinctively
It finds its way though mediocrity
And moves the song in my soul

I've been here many times
But will always embrace
There are no words to describe the way
It seems to appear from empty space

Hold down the melody
the words thought so carefully
they take hold with all such harmony
sing their way to my soul

Hold down the melody
It all works out instinctively
It finds its way though mediocrity
And moves the song in my soul
