How to write a song?

Thank you very much. Lol if I ever get around to writing lyrics, the music will most likely be played on the ocarina xP
 
I am a singer/songwriter (though I haven't posted any on youtube yet), and I find the easiest way is to tell a story. Write it down, then turn it into a poem. From there, you take the music, put it with the lyrics, and put your feeling into it. A song is just music and words without feeling. Whether anger, sadness, happiness, whatever, put feeling into it. Music moves people emotionally one way or another. Move people and you will have a great song.

If you need help, let me know what you are trying to do. I can probably help you come up with lyrics.
 
Well I try to be funny, so I changed my original idea and am now trying to write a song about the sticky part of the carpet xP
 
The way I write songs varies, sometimes I might have a great idea for lyrics and then write instruments to go with it, or I'll find a good guitar riff and put lyrics to it, depends on what mood you are in really, and what you are listening to at the time. Think of something simple, or even something that means a lot to you, and write. The best songs are written when you don't think about it.
