Hey, I hope I didn't come across wrong. Your point is well taken.
I've always been a "music" guy first myself. That is, until I started writing songs.
I just recently finished a song that I might post when I get it a little more polished. With this particular one, the melody as well as the lyrics matter because it's about love lost. I play it strummed, but there is no doubt if it were arranged and other instruments added, the melodic part of it would shine.
When I write something I think is worthwhile, I usually bounce it off a couple of other song writers I know. Gives me a good barometer of any value it might have. If you are interested, I will forward it to you in a PM.
