| Meg
|
| Tell me did you watch?
|
| Tell me that you saw.
|
| Did you hear the crowd?
|
| The way they cheered,
|
| I hope your proud.
|
| Did you like the new routine?
|
| Was it passable I mean.
|
| I can change a thing or two.
|
| What should I do?
|
| No don’t say it I can guess,
|
| But I promise I’ll progress.
|
| Phantom
|
| Yes of course whatever you feel is best.
|
| Meg
|
| Did the costume look okay?
|
| Too revealing would you say?
|
| People seemed to like the view.
|
| Madame Giry
|
| Meg please.
|
| Meg
|
| I could show a bit more skin.
|
| That would surely bring them in.
|
| Madame Giry
|
| MEG!
|
| Can’t you see that the master’s at work?
|
| Can’t you see that his mind’s somewhere else?
|
| Can’t you see that obviously he’s thinking of things more important than you?
|
| Phantom
|
| Careful madame. |
| You’re forgetting yourself.
|
| Madame Giry
|
| Don’t you see he forgot what this.
|
| Opening day, a big deal, what a fuss.
|
| Our success means not I guess compared to the things that the master must do.
|
| Phantom
|
| That’s quite enough!
|
| Madame Giry
|
| Christine! |
| Christine!
|
| Meg
|
| Christine…
|
| Madame Giry
|
| Meg leave now.
|
| In Paris, when the mob surrounded you.
|
| Who was there? |
| We were there.
|
| Where was she when the low men hounded you? |
| Gone! |
| Long gone! |
| We stayed on.
|
| Who concealed you safe away?
|
| Smuggled you up to Callay?
|
| Found a fighter out of France?
|
| Phantom
|
| I don’t see the problem.
|
| This is ancient history.
|
| Madame Giry
|
| And once here, when the side show hired you?
|
| Who stood by? |
| Meg and I.
|
| While they kept you on display?
|
| Who kept working night day?
|
| Who gave you their very lives?
|
| And who helped you buy that side show?
|
| Who helped you finance your scheme?
|
| Who wouldn’t quit 'til your act was a hit?
|
| And your hit could become your dream?
|
| Who played the politicians?
|
| Lured investors and the press?
|
| No, not her.
|
| And who stayed with you?
|
| Helped you and advised you?
|
| We stayed with you,
|
| Love and idolized you.
|
| She betrayed you.
|
| Shuned you and despised you.
|
| She chose Raoul.
|
| Chose his beauty and youth.
|
| It’s long past time you faced up to…
|
| Phantom
|
| ENOUGH!
|
| You will be repaid as I promised you would.
|
| Now if you’ve anything else left to say.
|
| Oh Christine. |
| My Christine.
|
| Yes you fled from my face once before.
|
| But Christine. |
| What we shared even you can’t ignore. |
| My Christine.
|
| I’ll be no longer denied.
|
| I’ll have you back by my side.
|
| My sweet Christine.
|
| And come what may.
|
| I swear somehow, some way.
|
| I will here you sing once more. |
