C'mon yeah I've been looking so long for you Now you won't get away from my grasp You've been living so long in hiding In hiding behind that false mask And you know and I know that You ain't got long now to last Your looks and your feelings Are just the remains of your past You're standing in the wings There you wait for the curtain to fall Knowing the terror and holding You have on us all Yeah, I know that you're gonna Scratch me and maim me and maul You know I'm helpless From your mesmerizing cat call Keep your distance, walk away Don't take his bait Don't you stray Don't fade away Watch your step, he's out to get you Come what may Don't you stray From the narrow way I'm running and hiding in my dreams You're always there You're the phantom of the opera You're the devil, you're just out to scare You damaged my mind and my soul It just floats through the air You haunt me, you taunt me You torture me back at your lair
