Why Have You Brought Me Here?/Raoul I've Been There

Why Have You Brought Me Here?/Raoul I've Been There is a song from Phantom of the Opera.

Lyrics

Why have you brought us here?

Don't take me back there!

We must return!

He'll kill me! His eyes will find you there!

Christine, don't say that.

Those eyes that burn!

Don't even think it

And if he has to kill a thousand men

Forget this waking nightmare...

The Phantom of the Opera will kill...

This phantom is a fable Believe me

...And kill again!

There is no Phantom of the Opera

My God, who is this man...

...Who hunts to kill?

...This mask of death?

I can't escape from him...

Whose is this voice you hear...

...I never will!

...With every breath?

And in this labyrinth, Where night is blind The Phantom of the Opera is here/there Inside my/your mind...

There is no Phantom of the Opera...

Raoul, I've been there To his world of unending night To a world with the daylight dissolves into darkness... Darkness... Raoul, I've seen him! Can I ever forget that sight? Can I ever escape from that face? So distorted, deformed, it was hardly a face In that darkness... Darkness... But his voice filled my spirit With a strange, sweet sound... In that night there was music in my mind... And through music my soul began to soar! And I heard as I'd never heard before...

What you heard was a dream and nothing more...

Yet in his eyes All the sadness of the world Those pleading eyes, That both threaten and adore

Christine... Christine...

Christine...
