(From "The Phantom Of The Opera")
(Michael:) Night-time sharpens, Heightens each sensation... Darkness stirs and wakes imagination. Silently the senses abandon their defenses Helpless to resist the notes I write For I composed the music of the night! (Barbra:) Slowly, gently Night unfurls its splendor. Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender. (Both:) Hearing is believing, music is deceiving, Hard as lightning, soft as candle light, (Michael:) There you trust the music of the night... (Barbra:) Close your eyes, For your eyes will only tell the truth, (Both:) And the truth isn't what you want to see. In the dark it is easy to pretend That the truth is what it ought to be... (Michael:) Softly, (Barbra:) Deafening, (Both:) Music shall caress you. (Barbra:) Hear it, (Michael:) Feel it, (Both:) Secretly posses you... Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind, In this darkness which you know you cannot fight, The darkness of the music of the night... Close your eyes start a journey through a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before! Close your eyes and let music set you free! Only then can you belong to me... Floating (floating), falling (falling) Sweet intoxication! Touch me (touch me), trust me (trust me) Savour each sensation! Let the dream begin, Let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write, The power of the music of the night! (Barbra:) Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah... Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah... Ah-ah-ah... Aaaaaaaaaah...oooh... (Michael:) You alone can make my song take flight, Help me make the music of the night... (Barbra:) Help me make the music of the night... |

Speak Low
When you speak love Our summer day withers away Too soon, too soon Speak Low When you speak love Our moment is swift, like ships adrift Westward depart, too soon Speak Low Darling, Speak Low Love is a spark, lost in the dark Too soon, too soon I feel wherever I go That tomorrow is near Tomorrow is hear And always too soon Time is so old And love so brief Love is pure gold And time of beef We're late, darling We're late The curtain descends, everything ends Too soon, too soon I wait, darling I wait Will you speak low to me, speak love to me And soon I wait, darling I wait Will you speak low to me, slow to me Oh please just don't say no to me Let it flow to me, slow to me, soon |

I don't know why I'm frightened
I know my way around here The cardboard trees, the painted scenes, the sound here. Yes a world to rediscover, But I'm not in any hurry And I need a moment. The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways, The atmosphere as thrilling here as always Feel the early morning madness Feel the magic in the making Why everything's as if we never said goodbye. I've spent so many mornings Just trying to resist you I'm trembling now You can't know how I've missed you, Missed the fairy-tail adventures In this ever-spinning playground We were young together. I'm coming out of make-up The lights already burning, Not long until the camera's will start turning And the early morning madness And the magic in the making... Yes, everything is as if we never said goodbye. I don't want to be alone that's all in the past, This world's waited long enough, I've come home at last! And this time will be bigger, And brighter than we knew it. So watch me fly, we all know I can do it... Could I stop my hand from shaking? Has there ever been a moment with so much to live for? The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways, So much to say not just today but always. We'll have early morning madness. We'll have magic in the making. Yes, everything is as if we never said goodbye... Oh, please don't ever ever make me say goodbye!!! |

How do you say to your child in the night
Nothing is all black but then nothing is all white? How do you say it will all be alright When you know that it mightn't be true? What do you do? Careful the things you say, Children will listen. Careful the things you do, Children will see. And learn. Children may not obey, But children will listen. Children will look to you For which way to turn, To learn what to be. Careful before you say, "listen to me." Children will listen. Careful the wish you make, Wishes are children. Careful the path they take, Wishes come true, Not free. Careful the spell you cast, Not just on children. Sometimes the spell may last Past what you can see And turn against you... Careful the tale you tell. That is the spell. Children will listen... How can you say to a child who's in flight, Don't slip away and I won't hold so tight? What can you say that no matter how slight won't be misunderstood? What do you leave to your child when you're dead Only what ever you put in it's head Things that your mother and father had said Which were left to them too. Careful what you say, children will listen Careful you do it too, children will see and learn. Oh! Guide them but step away, Children will glisten. Tamper with what is true And children will turn, If just to be free. Careful before you say, "listen to me." Children will listen... Children will listen! Children, children will listen |

I've never been in love before.
Now all at once it's you, It's you forever more. I've never been in love before I thought my heart was safe, I thought I knew the score. But this is wine, That's all too strange and strong, I'm full of foolish song And out my song must pour. So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in, I've really never been in love before! So this is wine, That's all too strange and strong, I'm full of foolish song And out my song must pour. So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in, I've never really been in love before... |

They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt At times you have a very un-lady-like way Of running out. Your on a date with me, The pickings have been lush And yet before this evening is over you might give me the brush You might forget your manners, You might refuse to stay, And so the best that I can do is pray... Luck be a lady tonight, luck be a lady tonight. Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with, Luck be a lady tonight. Luck how I'm longing to see, How good a friend you can be. Stick with me sister, I'm the one that you came in with, Luck be a lady with me. A lady doesn't leave her escort, It isn't fair, it isn't nice. A lady doesn't wander all over the joint And blow on some other guy's dice. So, let's keep the party polite, Hmm... Never get out of my sight, Stick with me sister, I'm the gal that I came in with, Luck be a lady tonight! A lady wouldn't flirt with strangers, She'd have heart, she would have a soul. A lady wouldn't make little sneak eyes at you, When I've bet my life on this roll. So, let's keep the party polite, Neeeee...ver get out of my sight, Stick with me pal, 'cause I'm the gal that you came in with, Luck be a lady... Luck be a lady... Luck be lady tonight! |

They don't want me any more,
They all say I'm through Well it's time they knew... With on look I can break your heart With one look I play every part I can make your sad heart sing With one look you'll know All you need to know. With one smile I'm the girl next door Or the love that you've hungered for When I speak it's with my soul I can play any role No words can tell The stories my eyes tell Watch me when I frown You can't write that down You know I'm right It's there in black and white When I look your way You'll hear what I say. Yes, with one look I put words to shame Just one look Sets the screen aflame Silent music starts to play One tear from my eye Makes the whole world cry. With one look They'll forgive the past They'll rejoice: I've returned at last To my people in the dark Still out there in the dark... Silent music starts to play With one look you'll know All you need to know. With one look I'll ignite a blaze I'll return to my glory days They'll say norma's back at last. This time I'm staying I'm staying for good I'll be back Where I was born to be With one look I'll be me... |

Someday he’ll come along
The man I love And he’ll be big and strong The man I love And when he comes my way I’ll do my best to make him stay He’ll look at me and smile I’ll understand And in a little while He’ll take my hand And though it seems absurd I know we both won’t say a word Maybe I shall meet him Sunday Maybe Monday, maybe not Still I’m sure to meet him one day Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day He’ll build a little home Just meant for two From which I’ll never roam Who would, would you? And so, all else above, I’m waiting for the man I love |

You are complete,
Yes, you are your own; We do not belong together. You are complete, just you all alone. I am unfinished, I am diminished With or without you. We do not belong together, And we should have belonged together. What made it so right together Is what made it all wrong. No one is you and no one can be, But others will do though. No one is you, no, there we agree, But no one is me, no, no one is me! We do not belong together, And we'll never belong... There's nothing to say, I cannot be what you want, I did what I had to do, Now it's up to you... Move on... Stop worrying where you're going, Move on. If you can go where you're going, You've gone. Just keep moving on... I chose and my world was shaking, So what? The choice may have been mistaken, The chosing was not, You have to move on. Look at what you want Not what might have been Only what could be. Look at all the things you did for me. Opened up my eyes, taught me how to see, Notice every tree, Trust myself enough to move on, I want to explore the world, I want to find how to get through Through this something new, Something of my own. Move on, move on! Stop wondering which direction is right. You'd think that you found perfection And then overnight you keep moving on. Look at what you want, not at where you are Think of what you have, what can be? Look at all the things you gave to me, Let me give to you something in return. Think of what we have, Not the things we couldn't share, Just the best of what was there Like the care, and the feeling, And the life moving on. We do not belong together, And we should have belonged together. We have to move on, Settle for the glow, time for letting go Now the moment's gone... Time for moving on. Move on... Move on... Move on... |
