Lyrics Iced Earth – The Phantom Opera Ghost
Text:
Y
I feel you, from beyond the walls you speak to me
M
Christine my love Paris now will worship you
Y
Oh my love, won’t you please show yourself to me
M
Soon I’ll take you in my kingdom you’re the queen.
It’s dark and peaceful but my face you’ll never see, no
M
Oh Christine on this eve I will come for you
Y
Erik my love, I’ve waited all my life for you
Please just take me I need to be with you
M
Take my hand, through the catacombs my lair awaits
Y
Caverns, mazes, the underworld and the blackest lake.
Enticing danger, your passion feeds me I’m your slave
Y
Now I’ve bathed in fear. I will not leave here
M
Breathe deep the darkness. Breathe deep the madness
Y
I’m so cold inside. Mental suicide
M
Breathe deep the darkness. Breathe deep the sadness
M
Oh Christine don’t you know it’s all for you
All for you, to have your night in the spotlight.
From now on forevermore you will only sing for me
Y
So you are, you are the legend. The Phantom Opera Ghost
M
I am what man has made me. With his hate and cruel ways
Y
Why are you?
M
Why am I?
Y&M
The Phantom Opera Ghost
Y
I have to see
M
You’ll never see
Y&M
What’s behind the mask
Y
I’m so torn between love, death, life, and hate
M
Don’t you doubt me, what we have is just our fate.
I now own you from this day forth; you’ll be my slave
Y
Oh Dear God for this life I’ve lost the will
M
No this can’t be I’d rather you die than spoil my dream.
Myself I’ll kill if I can’t have you no one will
