Beneath A Moonless Sky Lyrics

Beneath A Moonless Sky Song Lyrics

---

[Christine]
I should have know 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 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 strode 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

[Phantom and Christine]
And I heard those ravishing refrains

[Christine]
The music of your pulse

[Phantom]
The singing in your veins

[Christine]
And I held you

[The Phantom]
And I touched you

[Christine]
And embraced you

[Phantom]
And I felt you

[The Phantom and Christine]
And with every breath and every sigh

[Christine]
I felt no longer scared

[Phantom]
I felt no longer shy

[Phantom and Christine]
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
And I kissed you

[Christine]
And caressed you

The Phantom and Christine: And the world around us fell away
We said things in the dark, we never dare to say

[The Phantom]
And I caught you

[Christine]
And I kissed you

[Phantom]
And I took you

[Christine]
And caressed you

[Phantom and Christine]
With a need too urgent to deny
As 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 good-bye
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

[The Phantom]
And I loved you

[Christine]
I loved you

[Phantom]
And I left you

[Christine]
How I loved you

[Phantom]
And I had to, both of us knew why

[Christine]
We both knew why

[Phantom and Christine]
And yet I won't regret from now until I die
A 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.
