Somewhere in a burst of glory / Sound becomes a song.

I don't really know why an idea comes to me. But all of a sudden, an idea comes and from experience I can intuit what something means when an interesting line pops up. Or I can intuit what an interesting choice might be. And I can try a couple of different choices, and see which one feels right, and then continue the song to see where it goes.

Who am I to blow against the wind?

Much of songwriting is simply a mystery.
