I Remember... / Stranger Than You Dreamt It... Songtext / Lyric

*CHRISTINE*

I remember

there was mist...

swirling mist

upon a vast, glassy lake...



There were candles

all around,

and on the lake there

was a boat,

and in the boat

there was a man...



Who was that shape

in the shadows?

Whose is the face

in the mask?






*PHANTOM*

Damn you!

You little prying

Pandora!

You little demon -

is this what you wanted to see?

Curse you!

You little lying

Delilah!

You little viper -

now you cannot ever be free!



Damn you...

Curse you...



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 this

monster: this...

repulsive

carcass, who

seems a beast, but secretly

dreams of beauty,

secretly...

secretly...



Oh, Christine...



Come we must return -

those two fools

who run my theatre

will be missing you.
