Lyrics:
Phantom- Down once more to the dungeons Of my black despair! Down we plunge to the prison Of my mind. Down that path into darkness Deep as hell! (He rounds on her, bitterly) Why, you ask, was I bound and chained In this cold and dismal place? Not for any mortal sin But the wickedness of my abhorrent face! (He hears the offstage voices of the pursuing mob) Mob- Track down this murderer! He must be found! Phantom (moving off again)- Hounded out by everyone! Met with hatred everywhere! No kind words from anyone! No compassion anywhere! Christine, why? Why? Madame Giry- Your hand at the level of your eyes. Raoul- At the level of your eyes. Mob- At the level of your eyes. Madame Giry- He lives across the lake, Monsieur. This is as far as I dare go. Raoul- Thank you. Mob- Track down this murderer he must be found! Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground! Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know, the phantom of the opera lives down below! Christine- Have you gorged yourself at last In your lust for blood? (no reply) Am I now to be prey To your lust for flesh? Phantom- That fate which condemns me To wallow in blood Has also denied me The joys of the flesh. This face, the infection Which poisons our love. This face which earned A mother's fear and loathing. A mask, My first unfeeling Scrap of clothing. (he places veil on her head) Pity comes too late, Turn around and face your fate. An eternity of this Before your eyes! (they are almost touching, she looks coldly into his face) Christine- This haunted face Holds no horror for me now. It's in your soul That the true distortion lies. (the phantom senses Raoul's presence, behind the portcullis Raoul comes out of water) Phantom- Wait! I think, my dear, we have a guest. Sir. Christine- Raoul! Phantom (to Raoul)- This is indeed an unparalleled delight. I had rather hoped that you would come. And now my wish comes true. You have truly made my night. Raoul (pleading)- Free her! Do what you like only free her! Have you no pity? Phantom (to Christine, dryly)- Your lover makes a passionate plea. Christine Please, Raoul, it's useless. Raoul I love her! Does that mean nothing? I love her. Show some compassion. Phantom (snarls furiosly at Raoul) The world showed no compassion to me! Raoul Christine, Christine, let me see her. Phantom Be my guest, sir. Monsieur, I bid you welcome. Did you think that I would harm her? Why would I make her pay For the sins which are yours? Order your fine horses now! Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes! Nothing can save you now Except perhaps Christine. Start a new life with me. Buy his freedom with your love. Refuse me and you send your lover To his death! This is the choice! This is the point of no return! Christine The tears I might have she'd For your dark fate Grow cold and turn to tears of Hate! Raoul Christine, forgive me. Please, forgive me. I did it all for you and all for nothing. Christine Farewell, my fallen idol and false friend. We had such hopes. Phantom Too late for turning back. Christine Now those hopes are shattered. Phantom Too late for prayers and pity. Raoul Say you love him Phantom All hope of cries for help. Raoul And my life is over Phantom No point in fighting. For either way you choose you cannot win. Raoul But either way you choose he has to win. Phantom So do you end your days with me? Or do you send him to his grave? Raoul Why make her lie to you to save me? Christine Angel of music. Phantom Past the point of no return. Raoul Christine, say no! Christine Who deserves this? Raoul Don't throw your life away for my sake. Phantom His life is now the prize Christine Why do you curse mercy? Phantom Which you must earn, Raoul I fought so hard to free you! Phantom You've past the point of no return! Christine Angel of music You deceived me. I gave you my mind blindly. Phantom You try my patience. Make your choice. Christine Pitiful creature of darkness What kind of life have you known? God give me courage to show you, You are not alone. Mob Track down this murderer. Phantom Take her! Forget me. Forget all of this. Leave me alone. Forget all you've seen. Go now! Don't let them find you. Take the boat. Leave me hear, go now don't wait just take her and go before it's too late... Go... Go now and leave me! Mob The phantom of the opera is there Deep down below. Phantom (musical box plays magicaly) Masquerade! Paper faces on parade. Masquerade! Hide your face So the world will never find you. Christine, I love you Christine Say you'll share with me One love, one lifetime. Raoul Say the word and I will follow you Christine Share each day with me, Each night, each morning. Phantom You alone can make my song Take flight. It's over now, the music Of the night!!! (Phantom sits on throne sits on part of his cloak, wraps the rest around him and disappears, Meg picks up his mask in her little hand)
