Hurry up!
You won't believe it
Take a look what's over here!
Who imagined just how big the place would be
The man called Mr Y put it up in just a year
It's a little slice of heaven by the sea

Look, there's restaurants
A midway
A gigantic concert hall
The big

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

I should have known 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?

Denk an mich
Denk an mich zärtlich wie an einen Traum
Erinn're dich, keine Macht trennt uns

Here the sire may serve the dam,
Here the master takes his meat!
Here the sacrificial lamb butters one despairing bleat!

Poor young maiden! For the thrill on your tongue of stolen sweets
You will have to pay the bill, tangle

PHANTOM
Down once more to the dungeon of my black despair!
Down we plunge to the prison of my mind!
Down that path into darkness deep as hell!
Why, you ask, was I bound and chained to this cold and dismal place?
Not for any mortal sin, but the wickedness of my abhorrent face!

They say that this youth has set my Lady's heart aflame
His Lordship sure would die of shock
His Lordship is a laughing-stock
Should he suspect her, God protect her
Shame! Shame! Shame!

This faithless lady's bound for Hades
Shame! Shame! Shame!

Paper faces on parade
Masquerade!
Hide your face
So the world will
Never find you!

Every face a different shade

Look around
There's another
Mask behind you!

Flash of mauve
Splash of puce
Fool and kin

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation. Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defenses. Slowly, gently Night unfurls its splendor. Grasp it, sense it,

No one would listen
No one but her
Heard as the outcast hears

Shamed into solitude
Shunned by the multitude
I learned to listen
In my dark, my heart heard music

I long to teach the world
Rise up and reach the world
No one would listen
I alone could hea

From our saviors
From the enslaving force

Und kam mir nach
Mir schien, dass er mich rief
Und mit mir sprach

In dreams he came

Think of me, think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye
Remember me, once in a while
Please promise me you'll try
When you find that once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me
