Lyrics

[00:18.45] Raoul: Why have you brought us here?
[00:21.01] Christine: Don't take me back there!
[00:21.96] Raoul: We must return!
[00:23.22] Christine: He'll kill me!
[00:23.87] His eyes will find me there!
[00:26.03] Raoul: Christine, don't say that
[00:27.10] Christine: Those eyes that burn!
[00:28.55] Raoul: Don't even think it
[00:29.41] Christine: And if he has to kill a thousand men
[00:32.43] Raoul: Forget this waking nightmare
[00:33.59] Christine: The Phantom of the Opera will kill...and kill again! Raoul: This phantom is a fable. Believe me, there is no Phantom of the Opera
[00:39.02] Christine/Raoul: My God, who is this man
[00:42.92] Christine: ...who hunts to kill? Raoul: ...this mask of death?
[00:45.18] -I can't escape fromhim...I never will!
[00:51.31] Both: And in this labyrinth,where light is blind
[00:56.85] the Phantom of the Opera is here(there) inside my(your) mind
[01:04.16] Raoul: There is no Phantom of the Opera
[01:08.43] Christine: Raoul, I've been there, to his world of unending night
[01:16.49] To a world where the daylight dissolves into darkness, darkness
[01:26.17] Raoul, I've seen him!
[01:30.09] Can I ever forget that sight?
[01:34.27] Can I ever escape from that face?
[01:37.76] So distorted,deformed
[01:40.13] it was hardly a face in that darkness, darkness
[01:50.00] But his voice filled my spirit with a strange, sweet sound
[01:59.58] In that night there was music in my mind
[02:06.83] And through music my soul began to soar!
[02:20.80] And I heard as I'd never heard before
[02:25.77] Raoul: What you heard was a dream and nothing more
[02:33.25] Christine: Yet in his eyes all the sadness of the world
[02:45.54] Those pleading eyes that both threaten and adore
[02:59.68] Raoul: Christine, Christine
[03:04.06] Phantom: Christine
[03:06.15]
