Stranger Than You Dreamt It
|
Stranger
|
than you dreamt it -
|
can you even
|
dare to look
|
or bear to
|
think of me:
|
this loathsome
|
gargoyle, who
|
burns in hell, but secretly
|
yearns for heaven,
|
secretly . . .
|
secretly . . .
|
But, Christine . . .
|
Fear can
|
Turn to love - you'll
|
learn to see, to
|
find the man
|
behind the
|
monster: this . . .
|
repulsive
|
carcass, who
|
seems a beast, but secretly
|
dreams of beauty,
|
secretly . . .
|
secretly . . .
|
Oh, Christine . . .
|
(He holds out his hand tor the mask, which she gives to
|
him. He puts it on, turning towards the audience as he
|
sings):
|
Come we must return -
|
those two fools
|
who run my theatre
|
will be missing you.
|
(The lair sinks into the floor as the PHANTOM and
|
CHRISTINE leave)
