If I know you

J.W. Waterhouse: Circe Invidiosa

Clever liar, foolin' us all
Never thought I'd work it out
How could I have known it was ever about you boy?
Now there's nothin' to say, cos there's no words
And we're not talkin' anyhow
You must have known I was never to doubt you boy

If it was so fine, it was so good
Oh you're unbelievable
All this time I've been living without you boy
But not your lyin'
It felt so good, the world don't know
Now they'll never find out
How all these years she must've been beside you boy
Don't forget that I

Was the one that you found
And if I know you
You'll find me someplace new
I hope I never, I hope I never have to
We're a waste of time
And if I know you, learned long ago it's true
I hope I never, I hope I never have to

Go and explain, explain it again, boy that this all started
Found you lying in the arms of another girl
So stop your crying
Day after day, year after year
Far too long it lasted
You must have thought I was nothing without you boy
Don't forget that I

Was the one that you found
And if I know you
You'll find me someplace new
I hope I never, I hope I never have to
We're a waste of time
And if I know you, learned long ago it's true
I hope I never, I hope I never have to

And tonight, if we learn that the world's on fire
I guess I'll turn to you
I hope I never, I hope I never have to

I fail to find
So hard to find
And I can't find a way for you and I to go far...(?)

I'm always learning things the hard, hard, hardest way.

Cos I was the one, that you found
And if I know you, you'll find me someplace new
I hope you never, I hope you never get to

Tonight, if we learn that the world's on fire
I guess I'll turn to you
I hope I never, I hope I never have to

Will you still love me tomorrow...

Boris Vallejo: Alone

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
Will you love me tomorrow?

Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moments pleasure
Can I believe the magic of your sighs
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the mornin' sun

I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?

So tell me now and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Will you still love me tomorrow?

The idol

Boris Vallejo: Haesel The Slave


Will I be alone this morning
Will I need my friends
Something just to ease away the pain
And now I never see the loneliness
Behind my face
I am just a prisoner to my faith

If I could only stand and stare in the mirror would I see
One fallen hero with a face like me
And if I scream, could anybody hear me
If I smash the silence, you'll see what fame has done to me

Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely
I'll never know if love's a lie
Ooh - being crazy in paradise is easy
Can you see the prisoners in my eyes

Where is the love to shelter me
Give me love, love set me free
Where is the love, to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
Set me free

Heart of ice

Boris Vallejo: Red Sonja


Dreams in white, in a pleasure dome
naked skin on a marble throne
A Roman statue,clear and bright
All alone in a crowded place
Paralyzed by a look in her face
Visions of an endless polar night.

Just like a snowflake on a glowing plate
I melt away with longing for you,my love
Don't forsake.
Heart of ice, in your eyes
I can see just frozen lies
Heart of Ice,I'm willing to flee your embrace.

I can feel the icy breeze
Just one touch is making me freeze
Cold eyes that kill, icicle stings
She's the queen of raging storm
There's no place to keep me warm
One winter night I will be king

Phoenix rising...

Boris Vallejo: Phoenix

The island now in time
The secrets of your mind
The stories you cold tell
This world you know so well

The wonders you have seen
A life time in a dream
History books recall you fame
So many times, so many names

The taste of love fades too soon
Like the seasons of the moon
A hearts that`s turned to stone
From an endless life alone

Shaping fate and destiny
Of a future wordl to be
Damned into the flames
Eternity reborn again

Phoenix rising
The flames are calling
To the unborn
From the setting sun
Phoenix rising
The flames are calling
To the unborn It`s time has come

Laura (Volcano) !


No one remembers Maria, "has she been there too?"
When everybody's talking she just listens and keeps quiet

She stands at the edge and watches when everybody's dancing
With a faint smile upon her face she stands there and keeps still

How she wish she would dance in the crowd
Just move and don't think about
What the others could talk about her
That she could overcome her dumb shyness 

Then she would be a volcano, a sunset glow, from head to toe
A celebration, exultation, fascination 

She doesn't know what prevents her from letting it out
So no one can suspect what’s behind her facade

What a feeling

Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale: Natural Magic

Paralyzed!

Boris Vallejo: Medusa

I'm on a mission of mercy. I gotta testify. 
You lost your emotions. You're paralyzed. 

Amputate your logic, you're hypnotized. 
You show no emotion. You're paralyzed. 

Don't you know you crucify yourself, oh, no. 

You're killin' you and nobody else, 
And know you been spending your nights alone. 
The lights are on but there's nobody home. 

You don't know where you come from. You're not too wise. 
You got nowhere to run to. You paralyzed. 

Can you feel your body? Can you move your eyes? 
Can you feel your heartbeat? Well, are you paralyzed? 
Paralyzed

Still I'm sad

William Etty: The deluge

See the stars come falling down from the sky
Gently passing, they kiss your tears that you cry
See the wind come softly blow
Your hair from your face
And the rain come falling down
In its crazy way
Still I'm sad

For myself my tears just fall in the dust
Day will dry them and night will find they're lost
See the wind come softly blow
Time into my heart
And the rain come falling down
While we're apart
Still I'm sad
Still I'm sad

We 'll burn the sky...

Boris Vallejo: Scorpio

I'm in love with the sunshine
I'm in love with the falling rain 
everything seems to call your name 
yesterday you were leaving
leaving life and all the pain
everything wants you back again.

I've found myself through you
and there was love in my life
I felt always naturally high and my love had a home
but now my mind has started to roam
you're my life giving fire and you carried all my love 
through you I was so inspired 
you're engraved deep in my heart

My dreams recall us being one
I've searched for you to be free
my force of life you have always been
I Feel blue since you've gone
your breath of love surrounded me
when can I rejoin you to be free

Wait, can this be a dream
there is a voice in my head
it belongs to you, it say's
don't cry, no need to be sad
there's a way to stay with you again 
it's more than you ever had 
and no death brings us apart 
our timeless love always grows
because you are in my other heart

I know we've never been apart
your love sets fire to my heart
we'll burn the sky
when it's time for me to die 
we'll burn the sky...
