All Night Long

Love Hysteria
~<>~

When the night is closing
Eyes are running wild
Then I hear you humming
All night long
The sign I see it
Tell me am I true
All I need from you is
All I see
This city's paved with cold
Playboys buying fun
Seems there is no hunter left
Without his hunting gun
Can you feel the light
The air is wild open
Oh you see the light it's coming through
It's there in the distance
Always offered to me
Always coming over a hill
Oh your see-saw smile
Lasts me all night long
Like a siren's curl
When the night is long
Now come hold my hand
No bad vibe hearts
Hold my hand you know
This journey could be long
Yeah the seasons come in
All the nights are woven
All the nights we'll see them through
Ahh no hundred men now
Would dare cut into us
We'll go on and see it through
Belle,
Une rose qui a joue son role
Mon Miroir,
Mon clef d'or
Mon cheval
Et mon gant sont les cinq secrets de ma puissance
Je voulais livrer
Il vous suffira de mettre ce gant
A votre main droite
Il vous transportera ou vous desirez l'etre
When the night has come in
Your eyes are running wild
Then I hear you humming
All night long
Yeah the sign I see it
Yeah the times I see it
All I need to know from you
Is all I see
Can you feel the light
The air is wild, open
Oh you see the light,
It's coming through
It's there in the distance
Always offered to me
Always coming over a hill
Yeah the seasons come in
All the nights are woven
All the nights we'll see them through
Ahh no hundred men now
Would dare cut into us
We'll go on and see it through

art wonders at the world, art explores self and others, i use art for therapy, explore art through history, commune with art and artists of all metiers, i draw, sketch, make models, digitize, texturize, invent, caricature, color, idealize...the pursuit is neverending :)
love architecture, landscapes, gardens....ceramics, statuary, sculpture and glass, origami, leatherwork, jewelry, textiles, culinary arts, basketry...
love music, i play piano, i sing, and write, but mostly i listen passionate even at the sound of water.. i'm constantly amazed at the visual images of earth and, if it's true that we came here as guardians from another star system, i can completely understand why we are under the spell of this place.. ya know?
