RAOUL
No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.
CHRISTINE
Say you love me every waking moment,
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.
RAOUL
Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you.
CHRISTINE
All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.
RAOUL
Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you need me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
Christine, that's all I ask of you
CHRISTINE
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
say the word and I will follow you.
TOGETHER
Share each day with me,
each night, each morning.
CHRISTINE
Say you love me!
RAOUL
You know I do.
RAOUL & CHRISTINE
Love me, that's all I ask of you.
(they kiss)
CHRISTINE
I must go-
They'll wonder where I am
Wait fo me Raoul!
RAOUL
Christine I love you!
CHRISTINE
Order your fine horses!
Be with them at the door!
RAOUL
And soon you'll be beside me!
CHRISTINE
You'll guard me and you'll guide me
(they hurry off and the phantom emerges from behind the statue)
PHANTOM
I gave you my music
Made your song take wing...
and now how you've repaid me:
denied me and betrayed me...
He was bound to love you when he heard you sing...
