Down Once More / Track Down This Murderer

[00:00.29] Down once more to the dungeon of my black despair
[00:05.85] Down we plunge to the prison of my mind
[00:12.20] Down that path into darkness deep as hell
[00:24.23] Why you ask, was I bound and chained in this cold and dismal place?
[00:28.89] Not for any mortal sin, but the wickedness of my abhorrent face!
[00:34.04] (Track down this murderer, he must be found!)
[00:36.68] Hounded out by everyone
[00:38.76] Met with hatred everywhere
[00:40.83] No kind word from anyone
[00:42.88] No compassion anywhere
[00:45.07] Christine, Christine
[00:48.65] Why, why?
[00:53.87] Your hand at the level of your eyes
[00:56.46] At the level of your eyes
[00:57.66] (At the level of your eyes)
[00:59.97] (At the level of your eyes)
[01:01.82] Track down this murderer, he must be found
[01:04.49] Track down this murderer, he must be found
[01:07.23] Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground
[01:10.25] Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know
[01:13.75] The Phantom of the Opera
[01:15.19] The Phantom of the Opera
[01:16.23] The Phantom of the Opera is here
[01:18.73] Deep down inside
[01:20.44] He's here, the Phantom of the Opera
[01:24.00] He's here, the Phantom of the Opera
[01:33.19] Have you gorged yourself, at last, in your lust for blood?
[01:39.97] Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?
[01:49.03] That fate which condemns me to wallow in blood
[01:54.93] Has also denied me the joys of the flesh
[02:01.13] This face, the infection which poisons our love
[02:10.32] This face, which earned a mother's fear and loathing
[02:18.50] A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothing
[02:26.72] Pity comes too late, turn around and face your fate
[02:33.84] An eternity of this before your eyes!
[02:44.17] This haunted face holds no horror for me now
[02:54.86] It's in your soul that the true distortion lies
[03:08.52] Wait! I think, my dear, we have a guest
[03:13.72] Sir, this is indeed an unparalleled delight
[03:20.18] I had rather hoped that you would come
[03:24.80] And now my wish comes true
[03:28.00] You have truly made my night!
[03:30.23] Free her!
[03:32.36] Do what you like only free her!
[03:35.16] Have you no pity?
[03:36.60] Your lover makes a passionate plea!
[03:38.93] Please, Raoul, it's useless
[03:40.19] I love her!
[03:42.08] Does that mean nothing?
[03:43.17] I love her!
[03:44.83] Show some compassion!
[03:46.34] The world showed no compassion to me!
[03:48.54] Christine, Christine
[03:51.57] Let me see her
[03:53.06] Be my guest, sir
[03:57.79] Monsieur, I bid you welcome
[04:02.18] Did you think that I would harm her?
[04:07.23] Why should I make her pay for the sins which are yours?
[04:17.07] Order your fine horses now!
[04:20.50] Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes!
[04:24.37] Nothing can save you now, except perhaps Christine
[04:32.29] Start a new life with me
[04:36.21] Buy his freedom with your love!
[04:40.17] Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death!
[04:43.91] This is the choice
[04:46.05] This is the point of no return!
[04:57.04] The tears I might have shed for your dark fate
[05:04.15] Grow cold, and turn to tears of hate
[05:13.77] Christine, forgive me, please forgive me
[05:17.47] I did it all for you, and all for nothing (Farewell my fallen idol and false friend)
[05:24.54] One by one, all my delusions shattered (Too late for prayers and useless pity)
[05:29.37] Say you love him (All hope of cries for help)
[05:33.17] And my life is over (No point in fighting)
[05:37.49] For either way you choose you cannot win (he has to win)
[05:44.84] So, do you end your days with me
[05:49.24] Or do you send him to his grave?
[05:53.19] Why make her lie to you, to save me?
[06:01.56] Past the point of no return (Angel of music) (For pity's sake)
[06:06.82] The final threshold (Who deserves this?) (Christine, say no)
[06:10.47] His life is now the prize which you must earn!
[06:15.43] I fought so hard to free you
[06:19.26] Angel of music (You've passed the point of no return)
[06:25.30] You deceived me
[06:28.18] I gave my mind blindly
[06:34.14] You try my patience, make your choice!
[06:38.37] Pitiful creature of darkness
[06:44.96] What kind of life have you known?
[06:52.11] God give me courage to show you, you are not alone
[07:05.40]
[07:39.80] (Track down this murderer, he must be found!)
[07:45.04] Take her, forget me, forget all of this
[07:47.23] (Who is this monster, this murdering beast?)
[07:49.68] Leave me alone, forget all you've seen
[07:54.33] Go now, don't let them find you!
[07:56.03] (Revenge for Piangi! Revenge for Buquet!)
[07:58.35] Take the boat, leave me here, go now, don't wait
[08:01.54] (Too long he's preyed on us) Just take her and go
[08:04.79] (But now we know) Before it's too late, go
[08:07.69] (The Phantom of the Opera is there deep down below)
[08:13.40] Go now, go now and leave me!
[08:18.49]
[08:41.87] Masquerade
[08:44.97] Paper faces on parade
[08:48.13] Masquerade
[08:50.25] Hide your face so the world will never find you
[08:57.09]
[09:10.24] Christine, I love you
[09:21.57]
[09:43.12] Say you'll share with me, one love, one lifetime
[09:54.27] Say the word and I will follow you
[10:05.28] Share each day with me, each night, each morning
[10:16.21] You alone can make my song take flight
[10:25.75] It's over now, the music of the night!
[10:46.00]
