RETRO pop songs --- from another millennium and another galaxy.

My name's Pete. from Birmingham in UK-land. Nice to meet you ! I made a lot of very varied popsongs in the pre-digital age. I say they're McCartneyish, as I don't know how to categorize them. Allsorts. The description I use is RETRO I'm really a songwriter who wants others to perform these songs. So please bear that in mind as you grimace at my efforts to be acceptable. I'm especially concerned to write good lyrics, and if you do ever give some time to my stuff, I hope you will click to the lyrics and read those also. They don't come easy, you know. I'm plonking my songs here to give them a home, in the hope you might think they're not too bad. In fact, in the hope that you'll snap them up and I'll become an instant overnight megastar multi-millionaire. But failing that, I hope that you just like them. And if you do like one - I'd especially like it if you told me so. We all need strokes, eh ? Cheers ! Pete Songs-in-a-Bottle

Story behind the song

never mind

Lyrics

"to my mind love's forever
but if you some day ever
decide you don't want me in your heart

don't be concerned for my fate
just make your move and I'll wait
as through my tears I see you depart

for in my eyes you are not a mere possession
something I own, someone to use
you are a friend, one special person
although I love you, you're free to choose"

* * * * * * * * *

what were those words that I said
that now repeat in my head
put to the proof that terrible day ?

if I'd made remonstrations
and argued protestations
would it have worked to stand in your way ?

for in my eyes you were not a mere possession
something I owned, someone to use
you were a friend, one special person
the one I once thought I'd never lose
