The Music of the Night

THE MUSIC OF THE NIGHT
from the musical “The Phantom Of The Opera”
演唱：影子
Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation;
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination.
Silently the senses abandon their defenses.
Slowly, gently night unfurls its 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
Which you know you can not fight,
The darkness of The Music Of The Night.
Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world;
Leave all thoughts of the world you know 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 go on
To the harmony which dream alone can 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
