Ne'er Forsake Me, Here Remain
THE PHANTOM:
Oh, Christine...if only you could weep for me like that.
CHRISTINE:
I did weep for you once.
THE PHANTOM:
Out of pity, Christine, not love. But it is only a question of time. In time, you will grow to love me. I know it. Ne'er forsake me, here remain, Share with me my dark domain! Beautiful flower of maiden kind, Here in the bower where our love's enshrined. Give me your loving care, Oh free me from this dark despair. Tender scion of Philomel, Here in the shadows weave your magic spell. My maid of music, weave your magic spell... Why don't you swear here to join me, Where I can call you mine forever? Oh, my Christine... Ne'er forsake me, here remain, Share with me my dark domain! Beautiful flower of maiden kind, Here in the bower where our love's enshrined. Here in the shadows weave your magic spell. My gentle maiden, weave your magic spell... Here in the shadows weave your spell.
