Phantom of the Opera Lyrics


I've been looking so long for you now you won't get away from my grasp

You've been living so long in hiding in hiding behind that false mask

And you know and I know that you ain't got long now to last

Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past

You're standing in the wings, there you wait for the curtain to fall

Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all

Yeah I know that you're gonna scratch me and maim me and maul

You know I'm helpless from your mesmerizing cat call

Keep your distance walk away don't take his bait

Don't you stray, don't fade away

Watch your step he's out to get you come what may

Don't you stray, from the narrow way

(Slow Solo: Dave Murray)

(Solo: Dave Murray)

(Solo: Dennis Stratton)

I'm running and hiding in my dreams you're always there

You're the Phantom of the Opera you're the devil you're just out to scare

You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air

Haunt me you taunt me you torture me back at your lair
