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
this came out of a period of depression
Lyrics
once you formulated your ambitions once you thought that everything was carefully planned once you thought you'd stand upon a mountain now you feel your feeble body sinking in sand once you thought your future foretold fortune once you thought you knew the signs in your horoscope once you paved a path with your intentions now you realise the futile nature of hope nothing goes according to plan, nothing goes according to plan all of those schemes, all of those dreams, all of those golden goals you'd assumed you'd reach every beautiful thing that you thought you would do every wish, every dream that you thought would come true has been dashed on the rocks and been ground to despair and has vanished to dust in the air (you have lost everything abandon hope now you have entered here relinquish relinquish stare into the abyss and see but wretched forlornness behold the face of despondency accept it has all been in vain) once you had a yen for making wishes once you had ambition to fulfil your desires once you had a strategy before you now your faith and confidence have burnt in the fires once you thought you'd find a fellow soulmate once you followed fancy and you romanticised once you cultivated aspirations now they lie in ruins, wrecked, and unrealised nothing goes according to plan, nothing goes according to plan all of those schemes, all of those dreams, all of those golden goals you'd assumed you'd reach every beautiful thing that you thought you would do every wish, every dream that you thought would come true has been dashed on the rocks and been ground to despair and has vanished to dust in the air
