oh...just had a thought about this song. perhaps its about a couple who had just had a baby, but the mother dies during the birth:
Said when you were you born Your daddy took you home He whispered to the ground ever softly Left the shovel on the stone
^(visiting mother's grave?)^
i dont know the significance of the name "melon bend", but parts of the song hint at a father's struggle to raise a child without a mother:
I swore on your bed I will leave her never Until my bones give up
or maybe i'm way off...
