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
you don't want to know
Lyrics
sensitive and raw, frightened to expose myself to pain once more I timidly recoil and hide, safe inside my shell with tentative uncertainty I found in you someone to trust and tell with my soul laid bare in a maze of bitterness and dark despair however much I feel myself cheated and betrayed you speak to me, restoring me, with each word I'm less and less afraid I touch you and feel your strength come coursing through my limbs you touch me and reassurance sings a thousand hymns and I forget that I loved once before, lost all I loved once before stupefied and numbed when my life's four walls collapsed, my will succumbed I couldn't extricate myself from downheartedness I needed someone else's help to care again for future happiness take me by the hand, your sustaining presence helps me understand I overcome despondency, I harbour hope instead I feel in you security, and belief a future lies ahead I touch you and feel your strength come coursing through my limbs you touch me and reassurance sings a thousand hymns and I forget that I loved once before lost all I loved once before
