Phantom Of The Opera

Down Once More Lyrics - Phantom Of The Opera

PHANTOM 

Down once more to the dungeon of my black despair... 

Down we plunge to the prison of my mind... 

Down that path into darkness deep as hell! 

Why, you ask, 

Was I bound and chained 

In this cold and dismal place? 

Not for any mortal sin, 

But the wickedness of my abhorrent face! 

 

MOB 

Track down this murderer, 

He must be found! 

Hunt down this murderer, 

He must be found! 

 

PHANTOM 

Hounded out by everyone, 

Met with hatred everywhere, 

No kind words from anyone, 

No compassion anywhere... 

Christine... 

Why, why...? 

 

MME GIRY 

Your hand at the level of your eyes... 

 

RAOUL 

At the level of your eyes... 

 

CHOIR 

Your hand at the level of your eyes... (At the level of your eyes...) 

 

CHRISTINE 

Have you gorged yourself at last 

In your lust for blood? 

Am I now to be prey 

to your lust for flesh? 

 

PHANTOM 

That fate which condemns me 

To wallow in blood 

Has also denied me 

The joys of the flesh. 

This face, this infection 

Which poisons our love... 

This face which earns 

A mother's fear and loathing. 

A mask, my first 

Unfeeling scrap of clothing. 

Pity comes too late! 

Turn around and face your fate! 

An eternity of this 

Before your eyes... 

 

CHRISTINE 

This haunted face 

Holds no horror for me now. 

It's in your soul 

That the true distortion lies... 

 

PHANTOM 

Wait! 

I think, my dear, 

We have a guest. 

Sir... 

 

CHRISTINE 

Raoul! 

 

PHANTOM 

This is indeed 

An unparalleled delight 

I had rather hoped 

That you would come. 

And now, my wish comes true. 

You have truly made my night! 

 

RAOUL 

Free her! 

Do what you like, only free her! 

Have you no pity? 

 

PHANTOM 

Your lover makes a passionate plea... 

 

CHRISTINE 

Please, Raoul 

It's useless! 

 

RAOUL 

I love her! 

Does that mean nothing? 

I love her! 

Show some compassion! 

 

PHANTOM 

The world showed no compassion to me! 

 

RAOUL 

Christine, Christine... 

Let me see her! 

 

PHANTOM 

Be my guest, sir... 

Monsieur, I bid you welcome. 

Did you think that I would harm her? 

Why would I make her pay 

For the sins which are yours? 

 

Order your fine horses now! 

Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes! 

Nothing can save you now, 

Except, perhaps, Christine... 

 

Start a new life with me. 

Buy his freedom with your love! 

Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death! 

This is the choice, 

This is the point of no return! 

 

CHRISTINE 

The tears I might have shed 

For your dark fate, 

Grow cold and turn to tears of hate! 

 

RAOUL 

Christine, forgive me, please forgive me... 

I did it all for you, 

And all for nothing... 

 

CHRISTINE 

Farewell, my fallen idol and false friend 

We had such hopes, and now those hopes are shattered! 

 

PHANTOM 

Too late for turning back... 

Too late for prayers and useless pity... 

 

RAOUL 

Say you love him 

And my life is over... 

 

PHANTOM 

Past all hope of cries for help. 

No point in fighting, 

 

PHANTOM (RAOUL) 

For either way you choose you cannot win. 

(Either way you choose he has to win!) 

 

PHANTOM 

So do you end your days with me, 

Or do you send him to his grave? 

 

RAOUL 

Why make her lie to you to save me? 

 

PHANTOM 

Past the point of no return 

 

CHRISTINE 

Angel of Music... 

 

RAOUL 

For pity's sake, Christine, say no! 

 

CHRISTINE 

Who deserves this? 

 

PHANTOM 

The final threshold... 

 

RAOUL 

Don't throw your life away for my sake! 

 

CHRISTINE 

Why do you curse mercy? 

 

PHANTOM 

His life is now the prize 

Which you must earn! 

 

RAOUL 

I fought so hard to free you... 

 

CHRISTINE 

Angel of Music... 

 

PHANTOM 

You've passed the point of no return! 

 

CHRISTINE 

You deceived me! 

I gave my mind, blindly! 

 

PHANTOM 

You try my patience... 

Make your choice! 

 

CHRISTINE 

Pitiful creature of darkness, 

What kind of life have you known? 

God give me courage to show you, 

You are not alone... 

 

MOB 

Track down this murderer, 

He must be found! 

Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground! 

 

PHANTOM 

Take her, forget me, 

Forget all of this. 

Leave me alone, 

Forget all you've seen. 

Go now don't let them find you, 

Take the boat. 

Swear to me, never to tell. 

The secret you know of the angel in Hell. 

Go now! Go now, and leave me! 

 

Masquerade 

Paper faces on parade... 

Masquerade 

Hide your face so the world will never find you... 

Christine, I love you... 

 

INSTRUMENTAL 

 

CHRISTINE 

Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime 

 

RAOUL 

Say the word and I will follow you 

 

CHRISTINE 

Share each day with me 

Each night, each morning 

 

PHANTOM 

You alone, can make my song take flight 

It's over now, the music of the night!
