Love Never Dies Lyrics

Beneath A Moonless Sky

CHRISTINE:I should have known that you'd be here
I should have known it all along
This whole arrangement bears your stamp
You're in each measure of that song
How dare you try and claim me now?
How dare you come invade my life?

PHANTOM:Oh, Christine, my Christine
In that time when the world thought me dead

My Christine, on that night just before you were wed

Ah, Christine, you came and found where I hid

Don't you deny that you did
That long ago night

CHRISTINE: That night

PHANTOM: Once there was a night
beneath a moonless sky
Too dark to see a thing, too dark to even try

CHRISTINE:I stole to your side to tell you I must go
I couldn't see your face but sensed you even so
And I touched you

PHANTOM:And I felt you

BOTH:And I heard those ravishing refrains

CHRISTINE:The music of your pulse

PHANTOM:The singing in your veins

CHRISTINE:And I held you

PHANTOM:And I touched you

CHRISTINE:And embraced you

PHANTOM:And I felt you

BOTH:And with every breath and every sigh

CHRISTINE:I felt no longer scared

PHANTOM:I felt no longer shy

BOTH:At last our feelings bared
Beneath a moonless sky

CHRISTINE:And blind in the dark, as soul gazed into soul
I looked into your heart and saw you pure and whole

PHANTOM:Cloaked under the night
with nothing to suppress
A woman and a man, no more and yet no less

PHANTOM:And I kissed you

CHRISTINE:And caressed you

BOTH:And the world around us fell away
We said things in the dark
We never dared to say

PHANTOM:And I caught you

CHRISTINE:And I kissed you

PHANTOM:And I took you

CHRISTINE:And I begged you

BOTH:With a need too urgent to deny
And nothing mattered then
Except for you and I
Again and then again
Beneath a moonless sky

PHANTOM:And when it was done
before the sun could rise
Ashamed of what I was, afraid to see your eyes
I stood while you slept and whispered a goodbye
And slipped into the dark beneath a moonless sky

CHRISTINE:And I loved you
Yes, I loved you
I'd have followed anywhere you led
I woke to swear my love
And found you gone instead

PHANTOM:And I loved you
CHRISTINE:(How I loved you)

PHANTOM:And I left you

CHRISTINE:(And I loved you)

PHANTOM: And I had to, both of us knew why

CHRISTINE:We both knew why

BOTH:And yet I won't regret
From now until I die
The night I can't forget
Beneath a moonless sky

PHANTOM:And now

CHRISTINE:How can you talk of now?
For us, there is no now
