The Point of No Return

Past the point of no return

No backward glances

The games we played till now are at an end

Past all thought of “if” or “when”

No use resisting

Abandon thought and let the dream descend

What raging fire shall flood the soul?

What rich desire unlocks its door?

What sweet seduction lies before us?

Past the point of no return

The final threshold

What warm unspoken secrets will we learn?

Beyond the point of no return

You have brought me

To that moment when words run dry

To that moment when speech disappears

Into silence

Silence

I have come here

Hardly knowing the reason why

In my mind, I've already imagined

Our bodies entwining

Defenseless 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?

When will the flames, at last, consume us?

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

Say you'll share with me

One love, one lifetime

Lead me, save me from my solitude

Say you want me with you here beside you

Anywhere you go, let me go too

Christine that's all I ask of

(spoken)

What is it? What has happened? Ubaldo!

Oh my god… My god

We're ruined, André—ruined!

Monsieur le Vicomte! Come with me!

Oh, my darling, my darling… Who has done this?

(Hysterical, attacking André)

You! Why did you let this happen?

Monsieur le Vicomte, I know where they are!

But can I trust you?

You must. But remember: your hand at the level of your eyes!

But why?

Why? The Punjab Lasso, Monsieur. First Bouquet, now Piangi

Like this, Monsieur. I'll come with you

No, Meg! No, you stay here!

(to Raoul)

Come with me, Monsieur. Hurry, or we shall be too late!
