Music of the Night (From "The Phantom of the Opera")

Music of the Night(from Phantom of the Opera) - Orlando Pops Orchestra/Grand Pops Orchestra

Night time sharpens

Heightens each sensation

Darkness stirs and wakes imagination

Silently the senses abandon their defenses

Slowly gently night unfolds it's 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

Close your eyes

And surrender to your darkest dreams

Purge your thoughts of

The life you knew before

Close your eyes

Let your spirit start to soar

And you'll live

As you've never lived before

Softly deftly music shall caress you

Hear it feel it secretly possess you

Open up your mind

Let your fantasies unwind

In this darkness

That you know you cannot fight

The darkness of the music of the night

Let your mind start a journey

To a strange new world

Leave all thoughts of

The word 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

You alone can make my song take flight

Help me make the music of the night
