Phantom: 
Gm   Fm  Fm    Ebm  Gm 
You have come here 
       Fm          Fm      Ebm    Bb  
In pursuit of your deepest urge 
      Fm           Dbm             Bm  
In pursuit of that wish which till now 
         Am 
Has been silent  
Gm 
Silent.  
A  B     Ab    Gbm   A 
I have brought you 
           B           Ab      Gbm    F#m C# 
That our passions may fuse and merge 
        G#m           Em         Dm       Em  F#m  
In your mind you've already succumbed to me, dropped all 
  G#m 
defenses 
   Em                Dm 
Completely succumbed to me 
Dm  Cm     
Now you are here with me 
Cm Bbm  
No second thoughts 
         Abm 
You've decided 
  Gm  
Decided.  
 

Fm                C7          Fm 
Past the point of no return 
             F  
No backward glances 
     Db             Eb7              Ab   C7(b9)  C 
OUR GAMES OF MAKE BELIEVE ARE AT AN END 
  

Fm                   C7              Fm 
Past all thought of 'if' or 'when' 
         F 
No use resisting 
  Db                Eb7              Ab    Ab7 
Abandon thought and let the dream descend  
            Db                   Gb 
What raging FIRE shall flood the soul' 
     Gb7    B                Bm 
What rich desire unlocks its door' 
             Gb             Gm7  C 
What sweet seduction lies before us'  
Fm                C7         Fm 
Past the point of no return  
           F 
The final threshold 
      Db           Eb7 
What warm unspoken secrets 
         Ab     Ab7 
Will we learn 
  Db                Gb C7 Fm  
beyond the point of no return'  
           Gm   Fm  Fm     Ebm 
CHRISTINE: You have brought me 
Gm      Fm           Fm        Ebm  
To that moment where words run dry 
Ebm     Fm           Dbm         Bm    
To that moment where speech disappears 
     Am  
Into silence  
Gm 
Silence.  
A B    Ab   Gbm 
I have come here, 
A      B           Ab     Gbm  
Hardly knowing the reason why 
F#m   G#m         Em         Dm  
In my mind I've already imagined  
Em  F#m       G#m 
Our bodies entwining 
  Em              Dm  
Defenseless and silent, 
Dm  Cm  
Now I am here with you,  
Cm Bbm 
No second thoughts, 
       Abm 
I've decided  
  Gm 
Decided.  
Fm                C7          Fm 
Past the point of no return 
          F  
No going back now  
     Db              Eb7            Ab   C7(b9)  C 
Our passion-play has now at last begun.  
Fm                   C7              Fm 
Past all thought of right or wrong  
           F 
One final question  
     Db                Eb7               Ab     Ab7 
How long should we two wait before we're one'  
              Db             Gb 
When will the blood begin to race'  
    Gb7      B              Bm 
The sleeping bud burst into bloom'  
              Gb                Gm7  C7 
When will the flames at last consume us'  
      Gm                D7          Gm 
BOTH: Past the point of no return, 
           G 
The final threshold 
G7   Eb   
The bridge is crossed  
    F7                 Bb 
So stand and watch it burn  
       Eb          (Lento) Ab D7 Gm 
We've passed the point of no return.
