Beth Nielsen Chapman commented on LawrenceDean1959's lyric:

"Ha Ha Ha....is this meant for me? Just kidding!

this is a song about a relationship--not necessarily romantic....not sure writing about writing a song as an analogy is the strongest way....but it's creative!"

Lyric by LawrenceDean1959:

"Well, I could take your song/Sing it right back at you/Show what's wrong (with) ev'ry single line/'fore too long I'm sure we'd hit that awful rhyme/Still, I'm never gonna change your mind"

Beth Nielsen Chapman commented on LawrenceDean1959's lyric:

"here we have to stretch "set" across 2 notes. I feel like that's pulling at the seams of the melody.

look how much better this sings:

I'm never gonna change your mind
Baby its as solid as a stone

You could also try

It might as well be solid as a stone

although that's a bit more cumbersome...but it could work.

play with options around those first four syllables:

- - - - solid as a stone

in a situation like this I write 20 or 30 options. this really strengthens the songwriting muscles!!"
