By John Pape | Published April 20, 2018

Yes, lyrics can be written to an existing melody. It is done all the time. For the lyricist it provides a strong framework on which to build. Essentially for many songwriters when they write the second or third verse to a song, they are in reality writing lyrics to an existing melody. http://learnhowtowritesongs.com/writing-your-own-songs/

Songwriter Tip:

The big question is: ‘Is my music communicating effectively?’ If you find there are traps that are in your way, you should remove them. If these traps are something that you and you alone only notice, then leave it be (unless you just have to). Do whatever is in your power, but try not to be too nitpicky.
