Lyrics I Remember .../Stranger Than You Dream It ... - Andrew Lloyd Webber, "The Phantom Of The Opera" Original London Cast, Sarah Brightman

I Remember .../Stranger Than You Dream It ...

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?
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 theater
Will be missing you
