one day i'll find it
Trying to find the perfect melody
Thought I'd go and ask Sir McCartney
But I think he'd probably keep it for himself
Trying to find the perfect melody
To make you fall in love with me
Cause God knows I have tried everything else
Not going to buy you any presents any more
Not going to send those pretty flowers right to your front door
When I find the perfect melody
do you think you'd sing along with me
Do you think that we could go and form a band
When I find the perfect melody
will it make you fall in love with me
Do you think that I could be your only man?
Cause I've been trying hard to get back together with you
And writing this song is the last thing that I thought to do
I'm gonna find the perfect melody
I'm gonna play it for eternity
I'm gonna play it all day long until I drop
I'm gonna find the perfect melody
Hoping you will come right back to me
Cause my love for you is real and will not stop
(vocal scat as I try to find the perfect melody)
Cause I've been trying hard to get back together with you
And writing this song was the last thing that I thought to do
When I find the perfect melody
I'll probably start it with a "do re mi"
then I'll end it with a line about you girl
When I find the perfect melody
and you decide to be with me
Well that will just make my whole damn world
That will just make my whole damn world
That will just make my whole damn world.

hahaha.
This might not be perfect but it's very catchy! Probably best never to find the perfect melody as where would you go from there? Only down! Unless you moved onto finding the perfect rhythm I guess.

Nice write! Captures that early-Beatles vibe well, with some deft touches: love the "form a band" bit, and the "do re mi."

Does the perfect melody exist? Well, this song's melody and the prosody with the lyrics are not too far off. Well done!
