An Old Story Told
(1992)By Alx Krys
(Marilyn’s Song)
The stillness of this photograph
still vibrated my soul.
It excited me erotically,
then I knew it was an old story told.
Oh, pearl skinned celluloid goddess,
whose films dazzled men’s hearts,
here you are a twinkling star
dressed in your golden satin.
Playing Marlayna Dietrich
in your silver tight and white gown,
sparkling as the platinum Harlow,
as all the other starlets frowned.
You were the poster every soldier,
the fantasy of every man.
Never uncovering your modest features
for the likes of men in limousines.
(
CHORUS)
(trio Gregorian-Split Complimentary Harmony {sung without pointing out the melody})
Oh, bury me in young Marilyn
Bury me in your heart
Bury me in those sultry eyes
and let my heart drift afar....
(harmony oohs and ahhs verse)
Y
ou were the poster every soldier
the fantasy of every man
never uncovering your modest features
for the likes of men in limousines.
(trio Gregorian-Split Complimentary Harmony ( sung without pointing out the melody})
Oh, bury me in young Marilyn
Bury me in your heart
Bury me in those sultry eye
And let my heart drift afar
Playing Marlena Dietrich
in your silver tight and white gown,
sparkling as the platinum Harlow,
as all the other starlets frowned.
Oh, bury me in young Marilyn
Bury me in your heart
Bury me in those sultry eye
And let my heart drift afar

HOMEWARD (1985)
HOMEWARD (1985)
By Alx Krys
Sailing away, from a distant harbor
Monterey left far behind.
San Francisco the heart of Bonnie Doon
Oh, Sacramento rivers run
And I’m just a seafaring man
with a plan to save the world,
but I only have this boat in which the sail,
my carefree cargoed bails
safely homeward
safely homeward
safely homeward
There are no gales today
my seams are taught in place
these sunny days from here on
point Lucretia, vintage sweet and light
and lovely Lolita and dinners by candlelight
And I’m just a seafaring man
with a plan to save the world,
but I only have this boat in which the sail,
my carefree cargo bails
safely homeward
safely homeward
safely homeward
Sailing away, from a distant harbor
Monterey left far behind.
point Lucretia, vintage sweet and light
and lovely Lolita and dinners by candlelight

A Long Time (1995)
by Alx Krys
it’s going to be a long time…
It’s going to be a long time…
It’s going to be a long time…
It’s going to be a long time…From Now!
Walking out on the street
every people that we meet
pass us by with a smile
every day.
We were brought up on dreams.
Learned to hope men to scheme
in these streets, these streets
of our survival.
It’s a dream window-shopping at night.
And the pleasure of the warm moonlit night.
But when the chill is in our bones,
we don’t want to, no we don’t want to…
call this home. Now Way!
Looking through the trash
We’re just trying to find some cash
Without work we have to roam.
Can’t find a job without a home.
We try to hide, disappear.
Don’t look ashamed when we stare.
We’d like to go and get away.
But were trapped, so here we stay.
It’s going to be a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, time.
It’s going to be a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, time.
It’s going to be a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, time.
It’s going to be a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, time.
from now
walking out on the street
it’s going to be a long time from now.
Av
SWEET MELINDA.

Sweet Melinda I have to go,
got to burn my heart aches in the snow
North winds beckon my heart to go, oh,
blow you north winds blow.
Branded my mind,
love as sweet as very fine wine
Oh, when it was nice.
Then love took its turn
and for someone else's heart she yearned
then mine was ice.
(CHORUS)
How was I to know
these winter winds would blow
away our love.
And when those winds had come,
they had beaten like a drum
with push and shoves.
(CHORUS)
Her love for me was strong,
but wasn’t strong as she let on,
just being nice
I played along with disdain
But love never reigned
in our Paradise
(CHORUS)

"Forevermore"
by Alx Krys
C2019
You lie there, unaware, I stared
thinking of you
and why, you’ll be
forevermore.
You then turn, my heart yearns, I learned
you’re the only
one, I’ll love
forevermore.
And what about our tomorrow?
And what of our today?
And then, when turns our tomorrow
Will our love be left for our yesterdays?
I know you, you’re so new, but few
will realize that
your love’s
forevermore.
Please don’t cry and just sigh, knowing why
it’s peacefully
to see you’re one of
forevermore.

EASING THRU HEAVEN’S HALLS
LINED ROWS OF PICTURED SAINTS AND ALL
WHO AREN’T ABLE TO FEEL THEIR FALL (OFF THE WALL)
OR COMPLAIN ABOUT THEIR PAIN
I’VE PRAYED BEYOND ALL MY TRUST
TO FIND ONLY THOSE WHO MUST
BE ONE WITH EMPTINESS THAT RUSTS
BUT WHERE SHADOWS FADE TO LIGHT
LOOKING BACK AT ALL THE YEARS
WATCHING THE CREAM RISE TO THE TOP
AND WONDERING IF LIFE WILL EVER BE
EXTENDED BEFORE MINE STOPS
#
(CHORUS)HARMONY)
AT TIMES I’LL MISS AND REMINISCE
OF ALL THOSE DAYS BEING CAVALIER
BUT THOSE TIMES HAVE FLOATED AWAY
LIKE DANDELION FLUFFING THE AIR
#
MY SUN’S RAYS ARE CLOUDED OUT
WHILE I’M HOLDING BACK, THIS LIVING IN DOUBT
AND FINDING OUT MY ANGST BRINGS TO SHOUT
THAT LIFE’S NOT LEAVING ME BEHIND...
I’M NOT WILLING TO THROW IN MY CHIPS
OR WANT EVERYTHING THAT LIFE GIVES
JUST WANT THAT PIECE OF THE PIE
GIVING ME MY REASONS TO LIVE
“WHY ME?” AND WHO SAVES HIS REMARKS
ABOUT THE RISKS THIS CRISIS BRINGS
SO, FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE, GIVE A BREAK
AND TAKE AWAY THIS CANCEROUS THING
