Jane, I admire your musical and vocal talent. However, I don't know a single lyricist who can write tons of lyrics - good ones - effortlessly.  Sure, getting a basic idea down can be relatively easy, but afterwards the draft invariably needs a LOT of revision. This can take a great deal of time and effort. 'The art of writing is in the re-writing'. And it's not so much about having something interesting to say. There are plenty of interesting things to write about. The hard part is saying them in an interesting and skilful manner.  Perhaps you could think about asking a lyricist to co-write/revise your own drafts. Or post your lyrics for feedback. You could mention that they already have a melody, and any adjustments would need to be made within those parameters. Donna
