PHANTOM
I gave you my music . . .
made your song take wing . . .
and now, how you`ve
repaid me:
denied me
and betrayed me . . .
He was bound to love you
when he heard you sing . . .
Christine ...
Christine ...
RAOUL/CHRISTINE (offstage)
Say you`ll share with
me one
love, one lifetime . . .
say the word
and I will follow you . . .
Share each day with
me, each
night, each morning . . .
PHANTOM
You will curse the day
you did not do
all that the Phantom asked
of you . . .!
(As the roof of the opera house disappears, the opera
curtain closes and the PRINCIPALS in `Il Muto` appear
through it for their bows, CHRISTINE conspicuously
dressed in CARLOTTA`S costume. simultaneously, we
hear the maniacal laughter of the PHANTOM and see him
high above the stage, perilously rocking the chandelier.
The lights of the
chandelier begin flickering and, at a great cry from him,
it descends, swinging more and more madly over the
orchestra pit)
PHANTOM
Go! !
(The chandelier falls to the stage at CHRISTINE`S feet)
