Why have you brought me here / Raoul I've been there lyrics

Raoul:

Why have you brought us here?

Christine:

Don't take me back there!

He'll kill me!

His eyes will find me there!

Raoul:

Christine, don't say that

Christine:

Those eyes that burn!

Raoul:

Don't even think it

Christine:

And if he has to kill a thousand men

Raoul:

Forget this waking nightmare

Christine:

The Phantom of the Opera will kill

And kill again!

Raoul:

This Phantom is a fable

Believe me

There is no Phantom of the Opera

Christine:

My God, who is

​this man

Who hunts to kill?

Raoul:

My God, who is

​this man

This mask of death?

Christine:

I can't escape

​from him

I never will!

Raoul:

Whose is this voice you

​hear, with every breath?

Christine & Raoul:

And in this labyrinth

Where night is blind

The Phantom of the Opera is here

Inside my/your mind

Raoul:

There is no Phantom of the Opera

Christine:

Raoul, I've been there

To his world of unending night

To a world where the daylight dissolves into darkness

Darkness

Raoul, I've seen him!

Can I ever forget that sight?

Can I ever escape from that face?

So distorted, deformed, it was hardly a face

In that darkness

Darkness

But his voice filled my spirit

With a strange, sweet sound

In that night, there was music in my mind

And through music, my soul began to soar!

And I heard as I'd never heard before

Raoul:

What you heard was a dream and nothing more

Christine:

Yet in his eyes

All the sadness of the world

Those pleading eyes

That both threaten and adore
