andrew lloyd webber - down once more/track down this murderer (film version) lyrics

Loading...

[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 h-ll!

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!

[ensemble]
track down this murderer!
he must be found!
track down this murderer!
he must be found!

[phantom]
hounded out by everyone!
met with hatred everywhere!
no kind words from anyone!
no comp-ssion anywhere!
christine…
why? why?

[madame giry]
your hand at the level of your eyes!

(echoing)
… at the level of your eyes …
your hand at the level of your eyes
your hand at the level of your eyes

[special edition: instrumental interlude]

[christine]
have you gorged yourself, at last, in your l-st for blood?
am i now to be prey to your l-st 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 scr-p of clothing
pity comes too late—
turn around and face your fate:
an eternity of this before your eyes!

[christine]
this haunted face holds no horror for me now
it’s in your soul that the true distortion lies

[phantom]
wait! i think, my dear, we have a guest!
sir…

[christine:]
raoul!

[phantom]
…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!

[christine, spoken (special edition only)]
let me go

[raoul]
free her!
do what you like, only free her!
have you no pity?

[phantom]
your lover makes a p-ssionate plea!

[christine]
please raoul, it’s useless!

[raoul]
i love her!
does that mean nothing?
i love her!
show some comp-ssion…

[phantom]
the world showed no comp-ssion 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 shed 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

say you love him
and my life is
over
either way you choose
he has to win

why make her lie to you, to save me?

for pity’s sake, christine, say no!
don’t throw your life away for my sake!

i fought so hard to free you…

[christine]
farewell my fallen idol and false friend
we has such hopes, and how those hopes are shattered!

angel of
music…

who
deserves this?
when
will you see reason?

angel
of
music, you deceived me

[phantom]
too late for
turning back

too late for prayers and useless pity!
all hope of cries for help
no point in fighting!
for either way you choose
you cannot win!
so, do you end your days with me
or do you send him to his grave?

past the point of
no return

the final
threshold
his life
is now the prize which you must earn!

you’ve p-ssed the point of
no return…

[christine, spoken]
i gave you my mind, blindly

[phantom, spoken]
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

[instrumental interlude]
[ensemble]
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 is there, deep down inside!
[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, swear to me, never to tell

the secret you know, of the angel in h-ll

go now! go now, and leave me!

[phantom]
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!
