I Only Wish

I Only Wish Lyrics

Christine:
You showed me the way to darkness
It was the path of night.
I was shown the road of evil
Now you can't let me go…

I only wish I could live my life
Knowing that I never will.
Sometimes I know when I've just dreamed
'Cause you are here with me.

I only wish that you're voice was mute,
So you cannot sing to me.
I only know that I must go, and,
Not be seduced by you!

Organist player, still a child
Turns from daylight to night.
You are the son of the devil,
Turned from heaven to hell…

Too many years having nightmares,
Why won't the curse fly by?

I only wish that Raoul were here
Sharing this unending dark.
What would he say to this dismay?
I only wish I knew!

No more killing dreams, no more gazing at you.
No more ice- cold hearts, I want my one true love!
Let me go back home,
Let me go back home…

(Christine gives the Phantom a kiss…)
