Andrew Lloyd Webber - Til I Hear You Sing (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) lyrics

[PHANTOM] Ten long years Living a mere facade of life Ten long years Wasting my time on smoke and noise In my mind I hear melodies pure and unearthly But I find I can't give them a voice without you My Christine, my Christine Lost and gone, lost and gone The day starts, the day ends Time crawls by Night steals in pacing the floor The moments creep Yet I can't bear to sleep Till I hear you sing And weeks pa** and months pa** Seasons fly Still you don't walk through my door And in a haze I count the silent days Till I hear you sing once more And sometimes in darkness I dream that you are there But wake, holding nothing but the cold night air And years come and years go Time runs dry Still I ache deep in my core My broken soul Can't be alive or whole Till I hear you sing once more And music, your music It teases at my ear I turn and it fades away and you're not here Let hopes pa** let dreams pa** Let them die Without you what are they for? I always feel No more than halfway real Till I hear you sing once more
