Phantom Of The Opera - All I Ask of You Lyrics

RAOUL

No more talk of darkness,

Forget these wide-eyed fears.

I'm here,

nothing can harm you - my words will warm and calm you.

Let me be your freedom,

let daylight dry -your tears.

I'm here,

with you, beside you, to guard you and to guide you . . .

CHRISTINE

Say you love me

every waking moment,

turn my head with talk of summertime . . .

Say you need me

with you, now and always . . .

promise me that all you say is true -

that's all I ask of you . . .

RAOUL

Let me be your shelter,

let me be your light. You're safe:

No-one will find you

your fears are far behind you . . .

CHRISTINE

All I want is freedom,

a world with no more night . . .

and you always beside me

to hold me and to hide me . . .

RAOUL

Then say you'll share with

me one

love, one lifetime . . .

Iet me lead you from your solitude . . .

Say you need me

with you here, beside you . . .

anywhere you go, let me go too -

Christine,

that's all I ask of you . . .

CHRISTINE

Say you'll share with

me one love, one lifetime . . .

say the word and I will follow you . . .

BOTH

Share each day with

me, each night, each morning . . .

CHRISTINE

Say you love me . . .

RAOUL

You know I do . . .

BOTH

Love me - that's all I ask

of you . . .

(They kiss)

Anywhere you go let me go too . . .

Love me - that's all I ask

of you . .

(CHRISTINE starts from her reverie)

CHRISTINE

I must go - they'll wonder where I am . . .

wait for me, Raoul!

RAOUL

Christine, I love you!

CHRISTINE;

Order your fine horses!

Be with them at the door!

RAOUL

And soon you'll be beside me!

CHRISTINE

You'll guard me, and you'll guide me . . .

(They hurry off. The PHANTOM emerges from

behind the statue)
