This has probably been covered already, but none of my searches are bringing up the information. I’m right in the middle of writing a lyric and no chorus has come to me yet (I have a hook), so I thought this is the perfect opportunity for me to try a different kind of song structure. I always do the same VVCV etc…and want to try just repeating the hook in the last line of the verses. So I’m wondering what considerations regarding maybe storyline, message etc…you make when writing a lyric with a repeating hook only. It’s a good time for me to think about this since the verses are really, really tentative at this point. Thanks for the help!
Kristi If it feels right do it... If you like it keep it if you don't try again  A number of my songs only repeat the hook at the end of a vers rather than have a seperate chorus... I've even won a couple of songwriting and lyric comps over the last 9 years with them .... If you check out my web site... Dawgs day off (as a lyric), and , the grey with wings upon his his feet (as a song) are the two comp winners ... Tipper (which has no chorus) made the finals as a song last year.... ok so not everyones cup of tea but I like them Good luck and Cheers

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
