Passarino - go away!
|
For the trap is set and waits for its prey . . .

|
DON JUAN (PHANTOM)
|
You have come here
|
in pursuit of
|
your deepest urge,
|
in pursuit of
|
that wish,
|
which till now
|
has been silent,
|
silent . . .
|
|
I have brought you,
|
that our passions
|
may fuse and merge -
|
in your mind
|
you've already
|
succumbed to me
|
dropped all defences
|
completely succumbed to me -
|
now you are here with me:
|
no second thoughts,
|
you've decided,
|
decided . . .
|
|
Past the point
|
of no return -
|
no backward glances:
|
the games we've played
|
till now are at
|
an end . . .
|
|
Past all thought
|
of "if" or "when" -
|
no use resisting:
|
abandon thought,
|
and let the dream
|
descend . . .
|
|
What raging fire
|
shall flood the soul?
|
What rich desire
|
unlocks its door?
|
What sweet seduction
|
lies before
|
us . . .?
|
|
Past the point
|
of no return,
|
the final threshold -
|
what warm,
|
unspoken secrets
|
will we learn?
|
Beyond the point
|
of no return . . .
|
|
AMINTA (CHRISTINE)
|
You have brought me
|
to that moment
|
where words run dry,
|
to that moment
|
where speech
|
disappears
|
into silence,
|
silence . . .
|
|
I have come here,
|
hardly knowing
|
the reason why . . .
|
In my mind,
|
I've already
|
imagined our
|
bodies entwining
|
defenceless and silent -
|
and now I am
|
here with you:
|
no second thoughts,
|
I've decided,
|
decided . . .
|
|
Past the point
|
of no return -
|
no going back now:
|
our passion-play
|
has now, at last,
|
begun . . .
|
|
Past all thought
|
of right or wrong -
|
one final question:
|
how long should we
|
two wait, before
|
we're one . . .?
|
|
When will the blood
|
begin to race
|
the sleeping bud
|
burst into bloom?
|
When will the flames,
|
at last, consume
|
us . . .?
|
|
BOTH
|
Past the point
|
of no return
|
the final threshold -
|
the bridge
|
is crossed, so stand
|
and watch it burn . . .
|
We've passed the point
|
of no return . . .
|
|
PHANTOM
|
Say you'll share with
|
me one
|
love, one lifetime . . .
|
Lead me, save me
|
from my solitude . . .
|
Say you want me
|
with you,
|
here beside you . . .
|
Anywhere you go
|
let me go too -
|
Christine
|
that's all I ask of . . .
