To your last dyin' day.

There's a place for us,
Somewhere a place for us.

Some day a time for us,
Time together with time to spare,
Time to learn, time to care.

Hold my hand and I'll take you there

Look down, look down, you'll always be a slave
Look down, look down, you're standing in your grave
Sing once again with me our strange duet
My power over you grows stronger yet
And though you turn from me to glance behind
The Phantom of the Opera is there
Inside your mind
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
