Andrew Lloyd Webber
Wandering Child
[PHANTOM]
Wandering child
So lost, so helpless
Yearning for my guidance
[CHRISTINE]
Angel or father?
Friend or phantom?
Who is it there, staring?
[PHANTOM]
Have you forgotten your Angel?
[CHRISTINE]
Angel, oh speak
What endless longings
Echo in this whisper?
[PHANTOM]
Too long you've wandered in winter
Far from my fathering gaze[CHRISTINE]
Wildly my mind beats against
you
Yet the soul obeys
Angel of Music!
I denied you
Turning from true beauty
Angel of Music!
My protector
Come to me, strange Angel
[PHANTOM]
You resist
Yet your soul obeys
Angel of Music!
You denied me
Turning from true beauty
Angel of Music!
Do not shun me
Come to your strange Angel
[PHANTOM (beckoning her)]
I am your Angel of Music
Come to me: Angel of Music
[RAOUL]
No, Christine, wait! Wait!
[CHRISTINE]
Raoul!
[RAOUL]
Whatever you believe, this man—this thing—is not your father!
