I'm Lost in Hidden Melodies

Walking down these empty roads
My mandolin at my side
searching for the lost melodies
That are buried deep in my mind

It's like searching for a ghost
Although I feel them in my soul
I follow the notes that I hear
But they disappear like melting snow

I'm Lost in Hidden Melodies
That I've yet to recover
Holding on to the echoes
Of the melodies I can't uncover

I hear a whisper of a tune
But it fades away so fast
I always try to chase it down
But the music never lasts

It's like searching for a ghost
They disappear like melting snow
I follow the notes that I hear
I can feel them burn my soul

I'm Lost in Hidden Melodies
Of the music I can't uncover
Holding on to the echoes
That I've yet to recover

I've strummed my heart out
Yet my search persists
Each song I play my soul into
Each note played by wrist

Even if I never find them again
The melodies not heard but felt.
I'll keep chasing after them
Thier imprint on my heart'll never melt

I sense your frustration ManicCC, I'm often trying to get a tune out of a guitar but it just won't gel dunno

Not so much my frustration, rather the frustration of my D&D Bard.

Very pictured your emotions. I am learning guitar, not to be famous but to one day be able to pour out a melody from my heart. SMwave wave

This is just about perfect, I feel it so deeply in my soul and as you hold out your hand and begin to trust that it's real, it disappears like melting snow lips
