#song #lyrics #musicvideo
Come to me, my sweet
I’m just a kid in a candy store
Or like Christmas mornin’
With gifts laid out on the floor
My hands hold you tight
A whisper warms your ear
Cry if you can't help it
We got nothin’ to fear
You’re partial to roses
Red colors the bed and
The heat of our bodies
Says talk has come to an end
Beware the man, the beast
Release the crazy
We’ll take from each other
‘til dawn warm and hazy
Ignore all the doubters
Forget all their talk ‘cause
Our love is enduring and
Ceaseless and raw
And when we wake up
In a tangle on the floor
I’ll breathe in your life
And say softly je t’adore
I want your love
I need your love
Glide inside my shadow
Let me be your armor
Desire’s runnin’ high
Float through my mind
Tell me what you wish
Our love’s what you’ll find
Surrender your love
I surrender mine
Surrender your love
I surrender, surrender mine

HOLLYWOOD GIRL
(Oh, little girl…)
(Here she comes…)
Small town twinkle,
Belies the notion.
Her smile sparkles,
She's so precocious.
Her favorite color,
Deep Cabo tan.
Look in her eyes,
Hidden by Ray-Bans.
Oh, little girl, the crowd parts for you.
Step from the cafe, we all want a view.
You’re so celeb,
You’re so special.
Moon in the day,
At night, celestial.
Perfect for TV,
Playing a dream,
Shot a new movie,
Living on a screen.
Open your mouth,
We stop to listen.
Put on some gloss,
Smeared lips glisten.
Oh, little girl, the lights rain on you.
Walk the red carpet, we all want a view.
Before the camera,
You’re so damn flirty.
Looking cute fifteen,
And hot faux-thirty.
To play a woman,
Oh, that’s a chore.
Or fancy lady,
God, that’s a bore.
Be what they want,
Without a fight.
Or yourself maybe.
In some another life.
Oh, little girl, rumors demand you to,
Crawl out of the bedroom, we all want a view.
(What’s she wearing? Is it really True? I've heard rumors. Where are her parents? C-list at best. Who's her new boyfriend? I can't believe it. She's a wanna-be. Does anyone care about her. She's no star.)
A hit that missed,
Oh, not to worry.
A pilot cancelled,
Must go, we’re sorry.
You made your price,
On private yachts.
The kind of work,
Girls do in Cannes.
Rode a hard train,
From Hollywood peak.
Now all alone,
Except in photo leaks.
Yes, little girl, we moved on from you,
Cry all you want, there’s nothing you can do.
Yes, little girl, what you heard is true.
Hello goodbye, there’s a new girl like you.
(Oh, little girl…)
(There she goes…)
(Oh, little girl)
(What’s her name?)

What’s it like to be in love?
What’s it like to be in love?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
How's it feel to be in love?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
What’s it like to be all in?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
I hunt just to chase
Please, tease and charm
I'll take what I want
It's the game I play
I scheme to deceive
When I come my way
Don't care late tonight
By dawn where I’ll be
What’s it like to be in love?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
How's it feel to be in love?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
What’s it like to be all in?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
​
Hike my pants
Brush a crease
Feign a kiss
Smile slight
I don’t know
Your name
Do you know mine?
I'm on my way
At the door
Nod goodbye
So will ya call?
I'll never say
What’s it like to be in love?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
What’s it like to be all in?
Have ya been? Have ya been?
What’s it like to be in love?
What’s it like to be in love?
What’s it like to be in love?

Curse At The Sky
Chris Whitby, vocals
Luke Smith, music
Alfred C. Martino, lyrics
CURSE AT THE SKY
A black mass crawls along a faraway landscape.
A serpent of soldiers brings a battle with no escape.
A call to arms, as war drums thunder.
Beneath our feet, the ground cracks asunder.
Nodding faint smiles to our weeping wives.
And for our daughters, long hugs of goodbye.
We may perish,
Oh, but we don’t care.
In battle we trust,
Our purpose laid bare.
Beyond a placid valley, their war cries are heard.
Tighten our leather guards, none waste a word.
We fight for Alesia, behind shields of metal.
Men forged of fury, and Hell of no equal.
Nodding faint smiles to our weeping wives.
And for our daughters, long hugs of goodbye.
We leave behind our farms to face Roman lore.
Hunger for victory, yearn to be immortal.
And we will perish,
Oh, but we don’t care.
In battle we trust,
Our glory laid bare.
The flames of fear, war-dance in the night.
Begin our reckoning, to bring forth the fight.
Fight for our warrior king, reap what we sow.
Choke on the smoke, along the valley low.
Armor of thousands flashing in the flame's glow.
Pledge to our warrior king, reap what we sow.
Now run with your brothers, lift your sword up high.
Run towards the darkened hills, curse at the sky!
Armor of thousands flashing in the flame's glow.
Pledge to our warrior king, reap what we sow.
Now run with your brothers, lift your sword up high.
Run to the hills, curse at the sky!
Our boots splash red mist, with every charge.
It’s cool and thick, and chills our dead hearts.
Now run with your brothers, lift your sword up high.
Run through the valley, and curse at the sky.
We will perish,
And we don't care
In battle we've trusted our lives,
Our glory laid bare
And so we perish,
Oh, but we don’t care.
In battle we trust,
Our bodies laid bare.
​Curse at the sky!

A Rainbow Ain't Nothin' But Colored Light
Music, Lyrics & Vocals by Alfred C. Martino
2024 Copyright Alfred C. Martino
A RAINBOW AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT COLORED LIGHT
Splashed each other in baby baths,
Our mamas used to, tell us.
Almost got lost down by Rain Lily Pond,
Made our way home, without a fuss.
Ran together through hot August storms,
Held your hand, in mine so tight.
Chasing down that faraway rainbow,
Finding love, counting colors of light.
Beneath that ol’ willow tree,
We imagined, and schemed,
Whispering tales, revealing secrets,
Confessing our, grownup dreams.
Shared ourselves in quiet green fields,
Alone on, sunny afternoons.
Vowed to leave this quiet town when,
School ended, come June.
But the real world,
Isn’t simple.
Workadays,
Quiet passing time.
Woke one morning,
To a note.
You’d no longer,
Be mine.
A rainbow ain't,
Nothing but,
Colored light,
Or so, I'm told.
If all you find,
At the end,
Is a pot of,
Fool's gold.
Today in passing,
A friend told me,
You became a bride,
Not long ago.
Caught my breath,
For a moment,
Took a drive to that,
ol’ willow.
Spent time,
In its shadow.
Wondering if you,
Thought of us.
Or remembered me,
Kiss your cheek?
And scratch our names
Forever in the tree?
A rainbow ain't, nothing but, colored light, or so I'm told.
If all you find, at the end, is a pot of, fool's gold.
Each morning I wake up without you,
Miss the sun, in your eyes,
At night I stare through my reflection,
Hope to see you, in the moonlight.
A rainbow ain't, nothing but, colored light, or so I'm told.
If all you find, at the end, is a pot of, fool's gold.
I was there when you’d fall,
Do I cross your mind ever, at all?
Or am I just a bath playmate,
From a long time ago?
A rainbow ain't, nothing but, colored light, or so I'm told.
If all you find, at the end, is a pot of, fool's gold.

You Used To Be Mine
You used to be mine,
You'd smile and turn away.
Say things were fine,
That it was all in my mind.
I used to be yours,
I'd smile and turn away.
Heard all the right words,
Honesty, I would've preferred.
More times than I care to admit,
Then I'd ever confess to the truth.
Take a deep breath and hold it,
What happened to us? Please own it.
You float from our bed,
I sigh, you've gone away.
Lingering inside my head,
Not sure what was said.
You and another guy,
I glance but turn away.
From a cruel rain I fly,
Into a pale blue sky.
Strange place on a sign,
I stop and stare ahead.
Down a road all mine,
I'll follow the fading line.
More times than I care to admit,
Then I'd ever confess to the truth.
Take a deep breath and hold it,
What happened to us? Please own it.
You used to be mine.
You'd smile and turn away.
Guess nothin’ was fine.
Yeah, you used to be mine.
(Yeah... you used to be mine...)
(And I used to be yours...)
​(Damn... you used to be mine...)
Yeah, you used to be mine...
Yeah, you used to be mine...
Yeah, you used to be mine...
You used to be mine...
You used to be mine...​

Camille
​
​Oh, my dear Camille,
Up on an emerald hill,
Holding a parasol.
Reliving memories,
Beyond a distant meadow.
Oh, my dear, Camille,
Alone on a porch,
Pouring tea for one,
Wind billows her dress,
As another day is done.
Oh, my dear Camille,
A lonely silhouette,
Deep in the night,
In an attic window,
Laments the morning light.
I'm outside your house,
With all my love to give.
Unlatch the front gate,
‘cause passion is no sin.
Brush aside the past,
Open up your heart,
The moment is right now,
For our time to start.
Oh, my dear Camille,
Lives her life,
On a glass vignette.
As years slip by,
With each fading sunset.
Oh, my dear, Camille,
We can be alone,
Or together forever.
Life’s too damn precious.
To wait for whenever.
Don’t keep living on a thin veneer,
Call my name and I’ll be there.
Choose a quiet place for us to meet.
On God’s creation, down any street.
Day or night, the hour’s no concern.
Trust in me, your love is all I yearn.
Don’t let my effort be in vain.
We’ll shatter that stained glass pane.
Oh, my dear Camille,
Feet in the sand,
Stare into the moon.
Hold in braided hands,
Water lilies in bloom.
Oh, my dear Camille,
Oh, my dear Camille.
Open the gate,
Take the love I give,
It’s not too late,
For us to live.
​Oh, my dear Camille.
Oh, my dear Camille…
Feet in the sand,
Stare into the moon.
Hold in braided hands,
Water lilies in bloom.
Open the gate,
Take the love I give,
It’s not too late,
For us to live.
Oh, my dear Camille…

Dashboard Blue
Headlights dim. until dawn,
Skin glistens, transient love.
In the glow of midnight moon,
Forever memories, however true.
Kiss your ear, offer a smile,
Close your eyes, just for a while.
​I’m yours now, said in a hush,
Morning'll come, tonight is us.
Actin' roles, we weren't ready for,
Playin' games, didn't know the rules for,
Our forever night was all so true,
Fallin' in love under dashboard blue.
Fallin' in love under dashboard blue.
We fell in love under dashboard blue.
The night was forever,
Didn’t know at the time.
You made me feel,
You made me feel,
You made me feel,
Like a man,
Before I knew what bein' one was.
Feel your warmth, makes me shiver,
Kiss your lips, hint of quiver.
Linger inside your soft embrace,
Steal night moments, forgive by day.
​Holdin' tight, holdin' our breath,
Comin' close, feelin' little death,
Shudder together, release desire,
When it's over, no promises required.
Actin' roles, we weren't ready for,
Playin' games, didn't know the rules for,
Our forever night was all so true,
Fallin' in love under dashboard blue.
Fallin' in love under dashboard blue.
We fell in love under dashboard blue.
Night was forever,
Didn’t know at the time.
You made me feel,
You made me feel,
You made me feel,
Like a man,
Before I knew what bein' one was.
You made me feel,
You made me feel,
You made me feel,
Like a man,
Before I knew what bein' one was.

Jesus In The Sun
Spied a wayward woman with a crooked, quirky smile.
Singing to herself, spinning dancing all the while.
Knew right away as she swayed through the square,
She might touch my heart, but never stay there.
Came up beside her and offered my name.
Had time to share, did she wanna do the same?
With a ballerina’s turn, into my soul she peered,
Saw how time and circumstance aged my years.
And held out a hand…
Thought I heard her whisper…
Rainbow streams,
Colors of love,
Pastel clouds,
Ivory doves,
Desert quiet,
Blue sky above,
I've seen Jesus,
In the Sun.
Follow if you like, but leave doubts well behind,
Release your fears, if you follow you will find.
Didn’t wait for my answer, she was off with a start.
Skipped through the rain, storms drifting apart.
Searching for something, someone, somewhere.
And when they appear, we’ll know what we have to share.
Lips to mine, knocked my world unsteady,
Gently, she said, In good time you’ll be ready.
Thought I heard her whisper…
Lily petals,
In a meadow lush.
Swirls of genius,
From Monet’s brush.
Sweet first kiss,
With a teen crush,
I've seen Jesus,
In the sun.
Found myself alone at the center of the fair.
Smiling, watching happy faces everywhere.
As one we held hands, danced in blissful elation.
Savoring the lesson of life’s celebration.
Butterfly flutters a curious fawn.
Earthy mist on a summer dawn.
Newborn sleeping at her mama’s cheek.
Midnight moon upon a mountain peak.
Kiss before dying, farewell whispers.
Enraptured lovers, desire simmers.
Silver sparkles on an open sea.
Written words, now and to be.
Beauty is Jesus In the Sun.
Life is Jesus In The Sun.

Hitman​
Somebody’s lookin’ me down
Somebody’s comin’ around
Somebody’s at the back gate
Somebody’s sayin’ it’s late
Somebody’s playin’ it loose
Somebody’s hangin’ a noose
Somebody’s layin’ the blame
Somebody’s callin’ my name
Somebody’s spinnin’ a wheel
Somebody’s makin’ the deal
Somebody’s breakin’ the rules
Somebody’s spillin’ the truth
Somebody’s playin’ wit’ fate
Somebody’s takin’ the bait
Somebody’s givin’ up time
Somebody’s droppin’ a dime
Without a trace
All signs erased
Shadows appear
Someone’s a killer
Cat and dead prey
The game we play
Click sound flash bright
It’s a long road to goodnight
Somebody’s shakin’ the cage
Somebody’s settin’ the stage
Somebody’s baitin’ the trap
Somebody’s huntin’ a rat
Somebody’s makin’ the drop
Somebody’s flashin’ a Glock
Somebody’s taken aim
Somebody’s done the same
