I don't know much about co-writing and agreements but I do know if I had a complete lyric written and someone offered to put a melody to it and I didn't like the melody,I don't think I could be forced to give him/her ownership in my song.I would feel free to write or get written another melody that I was happy with.If the lyrics and melody were written together at the same time,each contributing a share of the words and melody,that would be a different matter.
I am sure I've read on JPF where lyric writers have had several melody writers writing melodies to the same song, with the intention of choosing the best melody to go with.I could be wrong,I was once before LOL.
