Angel of music
М Э Г
Where in the world have
You been hiding?
Really, you were perfect!
I only wish
I knew your secret!
Who is this new tutor?
К Р И С Т И Н
Father once spoke of an angel…
I used to dream he'd appear…
Now as I sing, I can sense him…
And I know he's here…
Here in this room he calls me softly…
Somewhere inside… hiding…
Somehow I know he’s always with me…
He – the unseen genius…
М Э Г (беспокойно)
Christine, you must have been dreaming…
Stories like this can't come true…
Christine, you're talking in riddles…
And it's not like you…
К Р И С Т И Н
Angel of Music! Guide and guardian!
Grand to me your glory!
М Э Г (самой себе)
Who is this angel? This…
В М Е С Т Е
Angel of Music! Hide no longer!
Secret and strange angel…
К Р И С Т И Н
He's with me, even now…
М Э Г (взволнованно)
Your hands are cold…
К Р И С Т И Н
All around me…
М Э Г
Your face, Christine, it's white…
К Р И С Т И Н
It frightens me…
М Э Г
Don't be frightened…
The phantom of the opera
The 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 you wear
(Phantom)
It's me they hear
(Together)
Your/My spirit and my/your voice
In one combined
The Phantom of the Opera is there/here inside my/your mind.
(chorus)
He's there, the Phantom of the Opera....
(Phantom)
In all your fantasy you always knew,
That man and mystery...
(Christine)
Were both in you
(Together)
And in this labyrinth
Where night is blind
The Phantom of the Opera is here/there
(Christine)
...inside my mind
(Phantom)
Sing, my Angel of Music
(Christine)
He's there, The Phantom of the Opera Music of the night
Music of the night
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 of the life you knew before!
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar!
And you'll live as you've never lived before . . .
Softly, deftly, music 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 of 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 . . . All I ask of you
All I ask of you
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
Say you love me ev'ry waking moment
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
Let me be your shelter
Let me be your light
You're safe, no one will find you
Your fears are far behind you
All I want is freedom
A world with no more night
And you, always beside me
To hold me and to hide me
And say you'll share with me
one love, one lifetime
Let me lead you from your solitude
Say you'll need me with you here, beside you
Anywhere you go, let me go too
Christine, thats all i ask of you
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime
Say the word and I will follow you
Share each day with me, each night, each morning
Say you love me
(You know I do)
Love me
That's all I ask of you
Anywhere you go, let me go too
Love me
That's all I ask of youТhink of me
CHRISTINE:
Think of me,
think of me, fondly,
when we've said
goodbye.
Remember me
once in a while -
please promise me
you'll try.
When you find
that, once
again, you long
to take your heart back
and be free -
if you
ever find
a moment,
spare a thought
for me ...
We never said
our love
was evergreen,
or as unchanging
as the sea -
but if
you can still
remember,
stop and think
of me ...
Think of all the things
we've said and seen -
don't think about the way
things might have been ...
Think of me,
think of me waking,
silent and
resigned.
Imagine me,
trying to hard
to put you
from my mind.
Recall those days,
look back on
all those times,
think of the things
we'll never do -
there will
never be
a day, when
I won't think
of you ...
RAOUL
Can it be?
Can it be Christine?
Bravo!
Long ago
it seems so long ago
how young and innocent we were
She may
not remember
me, but
I remember
her ...
CHRISTINE
We never said
our love
was evergreen
or as unchanging
as the sea -
but please
promise me,
that sometimes,
you wil think
of me!
