Andrew Lloyd Webber - The Music Of The Night (The Phantom Of The Opera) lyrics

Phantom)

Night time sharpens

heightens each sensation...

Darkness wakes

and stirs imagination

Silently the senses

abandon their defences

Helpless to resist

the notes I write

For I compose

the music of the night...

Slowly, gently

night unfurls its splendour.

Grasp it, sense it -

tremulous and tender

Hearing is believing

music is deceiving

Hard as lightning

soft as candlelight

dare you trust

the music of the night...

Close your eyes

for your eyes will only tell the truth

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.

Softly, deftly

music shall caress you...

Hear it, feel it

secretly possess 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, falling

sweet intoxication!

Touch 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...

You alone

can make my song take flight -

help me make

the music of the night...

Come we must return -

those two fools

who run my theatre

will be missing you
