Phantom of the Opera

I've been looking so long for you now you won't get away from my grasp

You've been living so long in hiding and hiding behind that false mask

You know that I know that you ain't got that long to last

Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past

You're standing in the wings there, you wait for the curtain to fall

And knowing the terror and holding you have on us all

Now I know that you're gonna scratch me and maim me and maul

And you know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call

Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait

Don't you stray

Don't fade away

Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may

Don't you stray

From the narrow way

I'm running and hiding, in my dreams, you're always there

You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the Devil, you're just out to scare

You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air

You haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair
