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
how I often feel
Lyrics
sad to say I do not know your whereabouts or what you're doing right now in your life time and tide conspire to keep me from you or if you are happy now and with somebody else or if you are thinking of me too for it's as much as I can do to keep my dreams from following you as within my heart I cross the bridge connecting still the sadness between now and then dusky memories well up and start stealing back again and in the sombreness of the light when I'm longing to cling to you when the moon is aglow and the stars are a string of exotic pearls my heart remembers the moment of madness I let you go from these loving arms and in the dark of the lonely night I dream and pray that you might come in my arms evening light falls in the dark and shines on memories as lengthening shadows appear just as I am thinking of you still chronic aching recollections are lingering here as inside my heart they always will for it's the hardest thing of all to ask a dreamer not to recall though it seems that in the brightness shapes of memories have melted away to thin air eyes that linger in the faintness can see they are still there and in the solitude late in the night when my memories turn to you in the flickering patches of lightness and shade that surround it still I stare, regretting in sheer disbelief that these empty arms ever let you go and in the dark of my lonely night I dream and pray that you might come in my arms once more
