The point of no return (OST "The Phantom of the Opera")
PHANTOM: Past the point of no return No backward glances Our games of make-believe are at an end
Past a thought of “if” or “when” No use resisting Abandon thought and let the dream descend

I have come here Hardly knowing the reason why In my mind I’ve already imagined Our bodies entwining Defenceless and silent Now I am here with you No second thoughts I’ve decided Decided
Past the point of no return No going back now Our passion-play has now at last begun
Past all thought of right or wrong One final question How long should we two wait before we’re one
When will the blood begin to race The sleeping bud burst into bloom Or will the flames of lust consume us
Both: Past the point of no return The final threshold The bridge is crossed So stand and watch it burn We’ve passed the point of no return. PHANTOM: Say you’ll share with me One love, one lifetime Lead me, save me from my solitude
Say you’ll want me With you here Beside you Anywhere you go Let me go too Christine that’s all I ask of…
