All I Ask of You
Phantom of the Opera

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 . . .

Sung by Shannon Wheel and David Janes,
it's now an everlasting memory...
