Music of the Night

Music of the Night is a song from Phantom of the Opera

Lyrics

I have brought you To the scene of sweet music's throne To this kingdom where all must pay homage to music Music...

You have come here For one purpose and one alone Since the moment I first heard you sing I have needed you with me to serve me, to sing For my music My music...

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defenses

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

Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night
