Lyrics

Phantom of the Opera

Christine: In sleep he sang to me
In dreams he came.
That voice which calls to me
And speaks my name.

And do I dream again?
For now, I find.
The phantom, of the opera is there
Inside my mind.

Phantom: Sing once again with me
Our strange duet.
My power over you
Grows stronger yet.

And though you turn from me
To glance, behind.
The phantom, of the opera is there
Inside your mind.

Christine: Those who have seen your face
Draw back, in fear
I am the mask your wear
Phantom: It's me they hear.

Both: My/your spirit and your/my voice
In one, combined.
The phantom, of the opera is there
Inside your/my mind.

Background: He's there, the Phantom of the opera.
Beware, the phantom of the opera.

Phantom: In all your fantasies
You always, knew.
That man and mystery
Christine: Were both in you.

Both: And in this labyrinth
Where night, is blind.
The phantom, of the opera is there/here
Inside your/my mind. Top


Music of the Night

Phantom: Night time, sharpens
Heightens each sensation.
Darkness, stirs and wakes Imagination.
Silently the senses
Abandon their defences.

Slowly, gently
Night unfurls its splendour.
Grasp it, sense it
Tremulous and tender.
Turn your face away
From the garish light of day.
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light.
And listen to the music of the night.

Close your eyes
And surrender to your darkest dreams.
Purge your thoughts
Off the life your knew before.
Close your eyes
Let your spirit start to soar.
And you'll live
As you've never lived before.

Softly, deftly
Musical shall surround you.
Feel it, hear it
Closing in around you.
Open up your mind
Let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight.
The darkness of the music of the night.

Let your mind
Start a journey through a strange new world.
Leave all thoughts
Off the world you knew before.
Let your soul
Take you where you long to be.
Only then
Can you belong to me.

Floating, falling
Sweet intoxication.
Touch me, trust me
Savour each sensation.
Let the dream begin
Let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write.
The power of the music of the night.

You alone can make my song take flight.
Help me make the music of the night. Top


All I ask of you

Raoul: No more talk of darkness
Forget these wide eyed fears.
I'm here, nothing can harm you
My words will warm and calm you.

Let me be your freedom
Let daylight dry your tears.
I'm here, with you beside you
To guard you and to guide you.

Christine: Say you'll love me
Every waking momment.
Turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you
Now, and always.
Promise me that all you say is true.
That's all I ask of you.

Raoul: Let me be your shelter
Let me be your light.
You're safe, no one will find you
Your fears are far behind you.

Christine: All I want is freedom
A world with no more night
And you, always beside me
To hold me and to hide me.

Raoul: Then say'll share with me
One love, one lifetime.
Let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you need me with you
Here, beside you.
Anywhere you go, let me go to.
Christine, that's all I ask of you.

Christine: Say you'll share with me
One love, one lifetime.
Say the word and I will follow you.
Both: Share each day with me
Each night, each morning

Christine: Say, you love me
Raoul: You know, I do
Both: Love me, that's all I ask of you.

Anywhere you go, let me go to.
Love me, that's all I ask of you. Top


Wishing you were here

Christine: You were once, my one compansion
You were all that mattered.
You were once, a friend and father
Then my world was shattered.

Wishing you were somehow here again
Wishing you were somehow near.
Sometimes it seems, if I just dream
Somehow you would be here.

Wishing I could hear your voice again
Knowing that I never will.
Dreaming of you, won't help me to do
All that you dreamed, I could.

Passing bells and sculpted angels
Cold and monumental.
Seems for you, the wrong companions
You were warm and gentle.

To many years, fighting back tears
Why can't the past, just die!

Wishing you were somehow here again
Knowing we must say goodbye.
Try to forgive, teach me to live
Give me the strength, to try.

No more memories
No more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years.
Help me say goodbye
Help me say goodbye
Help me say, goobye! Top


Pass the point of no return

Phantom: You have come here
In pursuit of your deepest urge
In pursuit of that wish
Which until now has been silent
Silent.

I have brought you
That our passions may fuse and muerge
In your mind you've already succumbed to me
Dropped all defences
Completely succumbed to me.
No second thoughts, you've decided
Decided.

Past, the point of no return
No backward glances.
The games we've played till now are at an end.
Past, all thought of if or when
No use resisting.
Abandon thought and let the dream descend.
What raging fire shall flood the soul?
What rich desire unlocks its door?
What sweet seducation, lies before us?

Past, the point of no return
The final threshold.
What warm unspoken secrets will we learn?
Beyound the point of no return.

Christine: You have brought me
To that momment where words run dry.
To that momment
Where speech disappears into silence
Silence.

I have come here
Hardly knowing the reason why.
In my mind I've already imagined our bodies
Entwining, defenceless and silent.
And now I am here with you
No second thoughts, I've decided
Decided.

Past, the point of no return
No going back now.
Our passion play has now, at last begun.
Past, all thought of right or wrong
One final question.
How long should we two wait, before we're one?
When will the blood begin to race?
The sleeping bud burst into bloom?
When will the flames, at last, consume us?

Both: Past, the point of no return
The final threshold.
The bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn.
We've passed the point, of no, return.

Phantom: Say you'll share with me
One love, one lifetime.
Lead me, save me from my solitude.
Say you want me with you, here beside you

Anywhere you go, let me go to
Christine, that's all I ask of..... Top
