“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!”

“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... Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams, purge your thoughts of the life you knew before. Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar, and live, as you never lived before!”
― Charles Hart, The Phantom of the Opera: Sheet Music Piano/Vocal

“Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime. Lead me, save me from my solitude. Say you want me with you, here beside you. Anywhere you go, let me go, too. Christine; that's all I ask of you.”

“Wildly my Mind beats against you, but my soul obeys.”
― Charles Hart, The Phantom of the Opera: Sheet Music Piano/Vocal

“You were once my one companion,
You were all that mattered.
You were once a friend and father,
Then my world was shattered.

Wishing you were somehow here again,
Wishing you were somehow near.
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed,
Somehow you would be here.
Wishing I could hear your voice again,
Knowing that I never would
Dreaming of you won’t help me to do
All that you dreamed I could

Passing bells and sculpted angels
Cold and monumental
Seem for you the wrong companions
You were warm and gentle

Too many years fighting back tears
Why cant the past just die
Wishing you were somehow here again
Knowing we must say goodbye
Try to forgive
Teach me to live
Give me the strength to try
No more memories
No more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years

Help me say goodbye
Help me say goodbye”
― Charles Hart, The Phantom of the Opera: Sheet Music Piano/Vocal

“So do you end your days with me, or do you send him to his grave”
― Charles Hart, The Phantom of the Opera: Sheet Music Piano/Vocal
