Songtext zu 'Giry Confronts The Phantom' von Love Never Dies

Meg:
Tell me, did you watch?
Tell me that you saw!
Did you hear the crowd
The way the cheered?
I hope you're proud!
Did you like the new routine?
Was it passable I mean?
I could change a thing or two
What should I do?
No don't say it I can guess
But I promise ill progress

The phantom:
(Spoken)
Yes of course. Whatever you think is best

Meg:
(Singing)
Did the costume look okay?
Too revealing, would you say?
People seemed to like the view

Madame Giry:
(Spoken)
Meg, please

Meg:
(Singing)
I could show a bit more skin
That should surely bring 'em in

Madame Giry:
Meg!
Can't you see that the master's at work?
Can't you see that his mind's somewhere else?
Can't you see that, obviously
He's thinking of things more important than you?

The phantom:
(Spoken)
Careful, madame, you're forgetting yourself

Madame giry:
(Singing)
Don't you see he forgot what this is?
Opening day, a big deal, what's the fuss?
Our success
Means not I guess
Compared to the things that the master must do!

The phantom:
(Spoken)
That's quite enough!

Madame Giry:
(Singing)
Christine! Christine!

Meg:
Christine

Madame Giry:
(Spoken)
Meg, leave. Now

(Singing)
In paris, when the mob surrounded you
Who was there?
We were there
Where was she
When the law men hounded you?
Gone and long gone
We stayed on
Who concealed you safe away?
Smuggled you up to Calais?
Found a freighter out of France?

The phantom:
I don't see the problem
This is ancient history

Madame Giry:
And, once here
When the side show hired you
Who stood by?
Meg and I
While they kept you on display
Who kept working night and day?
Who gave you their very lives?
And who helped you buy that side show?
Who helped you finance your scheme?
Who wouldn't quit 'till your act was a hit
And your hit could become your dream?
Who plied the politicians?
Lured investors and the press?
No not her
And who stayed with you?
Helped you and advised you?
We stayed with you
Loved and idolized you
She betrayed you!
Shunned you and despised you!
She chose Raoul
Chose his beauty and youth
It's long past time you faced up to

The Phantom:
Enough!
You'll be relayed as I promised you would
Now, if you've anything else left to say

Oh, Christine
My, Christine
Yes you've fled from my face once before
But Christine
What we shared even you can't ignore!
My Christine!
I'll be no longer denied
I'll have you back by my side
My sweet Christine!
And, come what may
I swear somehow some way
I will hear you sing once more!
