Phantom of the opera - The Phantom of the opera
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,

Phantom of the opera - The point of no return
You have come here in pursuit of your deepest urge,
In pursuit of that wish, which till now has been silent, silent...
I have brought you, that our passions may fuse and merge
In your mind you've already succumbed to me,
Dropped all defenses, completely succumbed to me
Now you are here with me, no second thoughts, you've decided, decided...
Phantom of the opera - 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
Phantom of the opera - Think of me
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,
Phantom of the opera - The Music of the Night
heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs
and wakes imagination
Silently the senses
abandon their defences
Slowly, gently
Phantom of the opera - Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again
You were once
my one companion . . .
you were all
that mattered . . .
You were once
a friend and father -
then my world
Phantom of the opera - Angel of music
Where in the world
have you been hiding?
Really, you were
perfect!
I only wish
I knew your secret!
Who is this new
Phantom of the opera - Learn To Be Lonely
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness
Who will be there for you
Comfort and care for you
Learn to be lonely
Phantom of the opera - Masquerade
Misseur Andre!
Andre:
Misseur Firmin!
Firmin:
Dear Andre what a splendid party!
Phantom of the opera - Down once more
Say you'll share with me, one love, one lifetime...
Lead me, save me, from my solitude...
Say you want me here beside you...
Anywhere you go let me come too...
Christine, that's all i ask of...
RAOUL: Oh my god, Oh my god
Phantom of the opera - I Remember
I remember there was mist
swirling mist upon a vast, glassy lake
There were candles all around,
and on the lake there was a boat,
and in the boat there was a man
Who was that shape in the shadows?
Phantom of the opera - No one would listen
No one but her
Heard as the outcast hears.
Shamed into solitude
Shunned by the multitude
I learned to listen
In my dark, my heart heard music.
Phantom of the opera - Wandering Child
Wandering child,
So lost, so helpless
Yearning for my guidance
Christine:
Angel or father?
Friend or phantom?
Phantom of the opera - We have all been blind
We are certain the doors are barred
Firmin:
We are certain the police are there
Raoul:
We are certain they're armed
Phantom of the opera - Overture
From our saviours
From the enslaving force of Rome!
With feasting and dancing and singing,
tonight in celebration,
we greet the victorious throng,
returned to bring salvation!
Phantom of the opera - Twisted every way
what answer can I give?
Am I to risk my life,
to win the chance to live?
Can I betray the man
who once inspired my voice?
Do I become his prey?
Do I have any choice?
Phantom of the opera - Madame Giry's Tale
Madame Giry, wait. . .
GIRY
Please, Monsieur - I know no more than anyone else.
RAOUL
That's not true.
1986 premiera w Her Majesty's Theatre in London's West End, Sarah Brightman i Michael Crawford, Upiór w operze
Phantom of the opera - The Swordfight
No, Raoul... no! Not like this.
(Raoul puts his sword away, then Raoul lifts Christine onto his horse. Raoul and Christine exit)
PHANTOM:
Now let it be war upon you both!
Phantom of the opera - Don Juan
Here the sire may serve the dam, here the master takes his meat!
Here the sacrificial lamb utters one despairing bleat!
CARLOTTA AND CHORUS:
Poor young maiden! For the thrill on your tongue of stolen sweets
you will have to pay the bill - tangled in the winding sheets!
