The Phantom of the Opera Songtext

von Dreams of Sanity

[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 . . .

[BOTH]
Your/my spirit
And your/my voice,
In one
Combined:
The Phantom of the Opera
Is there
Inside your/my mind . . .

[OFFSTAGE VOICES]
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 . . .

Sing, my Angel of Music!

[CHRISTINE]
He's there,
The Phantom of the Opera . . .
