Lyrics

[Christine] All my life I've been waiting In my mind, in a rocking chair For my fancy to take me And I would know the time Tick and tock went my childhood Father said I would know the place Skin would tingle and pulse would race As they do, it's here I'm home Where music fills the air And I'm home Where a thousand lovers cry Swoon and sigh And I'm home Where every violin Plays a treat as sweet As a honeycomb Wherever music plays I know I'm home Here, where fables come alive Year by year We forget our troubled lives Under lights And each tear Becomes a gentle tune or duet Kept straight by a metronome And if I'm singing Then I know I'm home Where every English horn Makes me feel glad I'm born And every woodwind trill Excites a thrill that's new The giant contrabass The great soprano's face Combine to make a perfect world Far better than what's outside Dreams, I've lived within my dreams Now it seems I've awakened and they're real Pinch and feel If one day I walk upon this stage from these wings And play underneath this dome And if I sing with all my heart I'll be home [Phantom] All my life to be waiting For an angel to one day sing Mouth goes dry And my knees grow weak At each word Each sound That voice That music in the air Every choice Every syllable Each note How they float And her tone A miracle of silk spun to gold Unfolding in polychrome And when I hear it How I know I'm home Who is this prodigy Who sings to only me? She is as innocent And natural as a rose I'd do her so much good We two, I know we could Combine to make a perfect world Far better than what's outside [Christine] La la la la La la la la La la la la La laaaaa [Phantom] Dreams, I've lived within my dreams Now it seems I've awakened And they're real If they're real If one day she walks upon this stage From these wings And plays underneath this dome And if she sings with all her heart I'll be home [Christine] Dreams, I've lived within my dreams Now it seems I've awakened And they're real If they're real If one day I walk upon this stage From these wings And play underneath this dome And if I sing with all my heart I'll be home!
