Giry Confronts The Phantom

Meg:

Tell me, did you watch?

Tell me that you saw!

Did you hear the crowd

The way the cheered?

I hope you're proud!

Did you like the new routine?

Was it passable I mean?

I could change a thing or two

What should I do?

No don't say it I can guess

But I promise ill progress

The phantom:

(Spoken)

Yes of course. Whatever you think is best

Meg:

(Singing)

Did the costume look okay?

Too revealing, would you say?

People seemed to like the view

Madame Giry:

(Spoken)

Meg, please

Meg:

(Singing)

I could show a bit more skin

That should surely bring 'em in

Madame Giry:

Meg!

Can't you see that the master's at work?

Can't you see that his mind's somewhere else?

Can't you see that, obviously

He's thinking of things more important than you?

The phantom:

(Spoken)

Careful, madame, you're forgetting yourself

Madame giry:

(Singing)

Don't you see he forgot what this is?

Opening day, a big deal, what's the fuss?

Our success

Means not I guess

Compared to the things that the master must do!

The phantom:

(Spoken)

That's quite enough!

Madame Giry:

(Singing)

Christine! Christine!

Meg:

Christine

Madame Giry:

(Spoken)

Meg, leave. Now

(Singing)

In paris, when the mob surrounded you

Who was there?

We were there

Where was she

When the law men hounded you?

Gone and long gone

We stayed on

Who concealed you safe away?

Smuggled you up to Calais?

Found a freighter out of France?

The phantom:

I don't see the problem

This is ancient history

Madame Giry:

And, once here

When the side show hired you

Who stood by?

Meg and I

While they kept you on display

Who kept working night and day?

Who gave you their very lives?

And who helped you buy that side show?

Who helped you finance your scheme?

Who wouldn't quit 'till your act was a hit

And your hit could become your dream?

Who plied the politicians?

Lured investors and the press?

No not her

And who stayed with you?

Helped you and advised you?

We stayed with you

Loved and idolized you

She betrayed you!

Shunned you and despised you!

She chose Raoul

Chose his beauty and youth

It's long past time you faced up to

The Phantom:

Enough!

You'll be relayed as I promised you would

Now, if you've anything else left to say

Oh, Christine

My, Christine

Yes you've fled from my face once before

But Christine

What we shared even you can't ignore!

My Christine!

I'll be no longer denied

I'll have you back by my side

My sweet Christine!

And, come what may

I swear somehow some way

I will hear you sing once more!
