And Then...
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
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
Those who have seen your face
Draw back in fear
I am the mask you wear
It's me they hear
Your spirit and my voice
In one combined
The Phantom of the Opera is there
Inside you
Fate
(E. Pugh)
And where darkness reigns
And shadows lurch
I spread my wings
To leave my perch
And up in your skies
I am within a disguise
And for all not to see
I am not one with me
I hide behind this mask
As if to fulfill a task
The little boy inside
Closed his eyes and cried
And the pleading of his cries
Is seen by no eyes
Such despair I decree
I no longer know me
I live upon a table
On which nothing can be seen
But upon that very table
Lies the emptiness of me
Flying high above
I see dark ahead
But to the light I turn
To face good instead of bad
And the pleading of his cries
Is seen by no eyes
Such sorrow I decree
I no longer know me
Such sorrow I decree
I no longer know me
