Phantom of the Opera with Steve Harley

Christine (Sarah)

Beneath the opera house
I know he's there.
He's with me on the stage,
He's everywhere.
And when my song begins,
I always find
The phantom of the opera is there
Inside my mind.
 

The phantom (Steve)

Sing once again with me
Our strange duet.
My power over you
Grows stronger yet.
You'll give your love to me
For love is blind.
The phantom of the opera is now
Your mastermind.
 

Christine

Those who have seen your face
Draw back in fear;
I am the mask you wear,
 

The phantom

It's me they hear.
 

Christine / Phantom

Your/My spirit and my/your voice
In one combined
The phantom of the opera is there
Inside my/your mind
 

Choir (very, very soft)

The phantom of the opera
Is there
The phantom of the opera
 

The phantom

Sing once again with me
Our strange duet.
My power over you
Grows stronger yet.
 

Christine / Phantom

I'll/You'll give my/your love to you/me
For love is blind.
The phantom of the opera is now
My/Your mastermind.
 

The phantom (spoken)

Sing, my angel of music ...
 

Christine

He's there,
The phantom of the opera.
 

Christine starts wailing

The phantom (spoken)

Sing ...
Once again with me, our strange duet.
My power over you grows stronger and stronger.
Sing ...
My angel of music/
Sing!
Sing our strange duet -
Sing!
 

Christine continues wailing,
and keeps on wailing after every
sentence the Phantom sings

The phantom (spoken)

The phantom of the opera
Is now your mastermind;
I am here, inside your mind!
I am everywhere!
You're in my power.
Sing!
Sing, my angel of music!
Sing! Sing!

The Unexpected Song

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics by Don Black. From SONG AND DANCE (1982)

The unexpected song

For once I'm lost for words
Your smile has really thrown me
This is not like me at all
I never thought I'd know
The kind of love you've shown me
 

Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing
 

I don't know what is going on
Can't work it out at all
Whatever made you choose me
I just can't believe my eyes
You look at me as though
You couldn't bear to lose me
 

Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing
 

I have never felt like this
For once I'm lost for words
Your smile has really thrown me
This is not like me at all
I never thought I'd know
The kind of love you've shown me
 

Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing
 

Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing

Chanson d'enfance

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics by Don Black and Charles Hart. From ASPECTS OF LOVE (1989)

Chanson d'enfance

Pas de tendresse
Et pas de joie,
Loin d'ici,
Loin de toi.
 

Rien de plus triste
Que mes soupirs,
Lorsque vient le jour
Ou il me faut partir.
 

Chanson d'enfance,
Tu vis toujours dans ma coeur.
Toi, la plus douce!
Toi, la plus tendre!
 

C'est la chanson
Qui dit toujours:
Dans ton esprit
Je vis toujours.
 

C'est la chanson
Qui dit toujours:
Dans ton esprit
Je vis toujours.

All I ask of you with Cliff Richard

Raoul (Cliff)

No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.
 

Christine (Sarah)

Say you'll love me ev'ry waking moment;
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.
 

Raoul

Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you.
 

Christine

All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.
 

Raoul

Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you want me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
that's all I ask of you.
 

Christine

Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime.
 

Together

Say the word and I will follow you.
Share each day with me, each night, each morning.
 

Christine

Say you love me ...
 

Raoul

You know I do.
 

Together:

Love me, that's all I ask of you ...
 

Love me, that's all I ask of you.

Don't Cry For Me Argentina

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Tim Rice. from the musical Evita

This song appears on the following SB albums - Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection and Surrender as No llores por mí Argentina.

This song was in Sarah's concert repertoire for a number of years.

Don't cry for me Argentina

It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
 

I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
 

Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance
 

And as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seems to the world they were all I desired
They are illusions
They're not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
 

Don't cry for me Argentina
 

Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance
 

Have I said too much?
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do is look at me
To know that every word is true
 

Don't cry for me Argentina

Another Suitcase In Another Hall

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Tim Rice. from the musical Evita

This song appears on the following SB albums - Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber and The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection

Another suitcase in another hall

I don't expect my love affairs to last for long
Never fool myself that my dreams will come true
Being used to trouble I anticipate it
But all the same I hate it -- wouldn't you?
 

So what happens now?
       Another suitcase in another hall
So what happens now?
       Take your picture off another wall
Where am I going to?
       You'll get by, you always have before
Where am I going to?
 

Time and time again I've said that I don't care
That I'm immune to gloom, that I'm hard through and through
But every time it matters all my words desert me
So anyone can hurt me -- and they do
 

So what happens now?
       Another suitcase in another hall
So what happens now?
       Take your picture off another wall
Where am I going to?
       You'll get by you always have before
Where am I going go?
 

Call in three months time and I'll be fine I know
Well maybe not that fine, but I'll survive anyhow
I won't recall the names and places of this sad occasion
But that's no consolation -- here and now
 

So what happens now?
       Another suitcase in another hall
So what happens now?
       Take your picture off another wall
Where am I going to?
       You'll get by, you always have before
Where am I going to?
       Don't ask anymore

Love Changes Everything

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Don Black, Charles Hart from the musical - Aspects Of Love.

 Sarah was to star both in London's west End and in the USA as Rose Vibert, sadly no official soundtrack exists with her singing this part.

This song appears on the following SB albums - As I Came Of Age, Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection.

Love changes everything

Love, love changes everything: hands and faces, earth and sky.
Love, love changes everything: how you live and how you die.
Love can make the summer fly, or a night seem like a lifetime.
Yes, love, love changes everything, now I tremble at your name.
Nothing in the world will ever be the same.
 

Love, love changes everything: days are longer, words mean more.
Love, love changes everything: pain is deeper than before.
Love will turn your world around, and that world will last forever.
Yes, love, love changes everything, brings you glory, brings you shame.
Nothing in the world will ever be the same.
 

Off into the world we go, planning futures, shaping years.
Love bursts in and suddenly all our wisdom disappears.
Love makes fools of everyone: all the rules we make are broken.
Yes, love, love changes everything: live or perish, in its flame.
Love will never ever let you be the same.
Love will never ever let you be the same.

Sarah

I don't have to say
A word to you
You seem to know
Whatever mood
I'm going through
Feels as though
I've known you forever
 

José

You
Can look into my eyes and see
The way I feel
And how
The world is treating me
Maybe I have known you forever

Amigos para siempre
Means you'll always be my friend

Means a love that cannot end
Friends for life
Not just a summer or a spring

Just knowing you are in this world
Can warm my heart
Friends for life
Not just a summer or a spring
Amigos para siempre
 

Sarah

We share memories
I won't forget
And we'll share more,
My friend,
We haven't started yet
Something happens
When we're together
 

José

When
I look at you
I wonder why
There has to come
A time when we must say goodbye
I'm alive when we are together

Memory

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Trevor Nunn, after T.S. Eliot. from the musical Cats - where Sarah played Jemima. 

This song appears on the following SB albums - Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection and  Surrender the Unexpected Songs & Encore as Piano (sung in Italian)   Memory first appeared as a recording by Sarah as the B side to the single Him.

Memory

Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her mem'ry?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
 

Mem'ry
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
Life was beautiful then
I remember
The time I knew what happiness was
Let the mem'ry live again
 

Ev'ry street lamp
Seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And a street lamp gutters
And soon it will be morning
 

Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new life will begin
 

Burnt out ends of smokey days
The stale cold smell of morning
The street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
 

Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with my mem'ry
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look a new day has begun ...

Gus: the theatre cat

Gus: the theatre cat

(with Sir John Gielgud)

Sarah

Gus is the cat at the theatre door
His name, as I ought to have told you before
Is really Asparagus, but that's a fuss to pronounce
That we usually call him just Gus
His coat's very shabby, he's thin as a rake
And he suffers from palsy that makes his paw shake
For he was in his youth quite the smartest of cats
But no longer a terror to mice or to rats
 

For he isn't the cat that he was in his prime
Though his name was quite famous, he says, in his time
And whenever he joins his friends at their club
(Which takes place at the back of the neighbouring pub)
He loves to regale them, if someone else pays
With anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days
For he once was a star of the highest degree
He has acted with Irving, he's acted with Tree
And he likes to relate his success on the halls
Where the gallery once gave him seven cat calls
But his grandest creation as he loves to tell
Was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell

Sir John

I have played in my time every possible part
And I used to know seventy speeches by heart
I'd extemporize backchat, I knew how to gag
And I knew how to let the cat out of the bag
I knew how to act with my back and my tail
With an hour of rehearsal, I never could fail
I'd a voice that would soften the hardest of hearts
Whether I took the lead, or in character parts
I have sat by the bedside of poor little Nell
When the curfew was rung then I swung on the bell
In the pantomime season, I never fell flat
And I once understudied Dick Whittington's cat
But my grandest creation, as history will tell
was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell

Sarah

Then, if someone will give him a toothful of gin
He will tell how he once played a part in East Lynne
At a Shakespeare performance he once walked on pat
When some actor suggested the need for a cat

Sir John

And I say now these kittens, they do not get trained
As we did in the days when Victoria reigned
They never get drilled in a regular troupe
And they think they are smart just to jump through a hoop

Sarah

And he says as he scratches himself with his claws

Sir John

Well the theatre is certainly not what is was
These modern productions are all very well
But there's nothing to equal from what I hear tell
That moment of mystery when I made history
As Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell

Anything But Lonely

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Don Black, Charles Hart from the musical - Aspects Of Love. Sarah was to star both in London's west End and in the USA as Rose Vibert, sadly no official soundtrack exists with her singing this part.

This song appears on the following SB albums - Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection.

Sarah also released this song as a single in 7", 12" and CD formats.

Anything but lonely

Anything but lonely,
Anything but empty rooms.
There's so much in life to share --
What's the sense when no one else is there?
 

Anything but lonely,
Anything but only me.
Quiet years in too much space:
That's the thing that's hard to face,
And ...
 

You have a right to go,
But you should also know
That I won't be alone for long.
Long days with nothing said
Are not what lie ahead --
I'm sorry, but I'm not that strong.
 

Anything but lonely,
Anything but passing time.
Lonely's what I'll never be,
While there's still some life in me,
And ...
 

I'm still young, don't forget,
It isn't over yet --
So many hearts for me to thrill.
If you're not here to say
How good I look each day,
I'll have to find someone who will.
 

Anything but lonely,
Anything but empty rooms.
There's so much in life to share --
What's the sense when no one else is there ...?
 

What's the sense when no one else is there ...?

Macavity: the Mystery Cat

Macavity: the mystery cat

Macavity's a mystery cat, he's called the hidden paw
For he's the master criminal who can defy the law
He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair
For when they reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there!
 

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
He's broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity
His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare
But when you reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there!
You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air
But I tell you once and once again Macavity's not there!
 

Macavity's a ginger cat, he's very tall and thin
You would know him if you saw him for his eyes are sunked in
His brow is deeply lined with thought, his head is highly domed
His coat is dusty from neglect, his whiskers are uncombed
He sways his head from side to side with movements like a snake
And when you think he's half asleep, he's always wide awake
 

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
For he's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravity
You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the square
But when a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there!
 

He's outwardly respectable, I know he cheats at cards
And his footprints are not found in any files of Scotland Yard's
And when the larder's looted or the jewel case is rifled
Or when the milk is missing or another peke's been stifled
Or the greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis past repair
There's the wonder of the thing Macavity's not there!
 

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity
He always has an alibi and one or two to spare
What ever time the deed took place Macavity's not there!
 

And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known
I might mention Mungojerrie, I might mention Griddlebone
Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the time
Just controls the operations: the Napolean of crime!
 

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
He's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravity
You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the square
But when a crime's discovered then Macavity
Macavity, Macavity, Macavity
 

When a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there!

Tell Me On A Sunday

Written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Don Black. 

From Tell me on a Sunday & Song and Dance.  Sarah starred in this and a video was recorded and released.  Sadly the video has long been deleted.

Tell me on a Sunday

Don't write a letter when you want to leave
Don't call me at 3 a.m. from a friend's apartment
I'd like to choose how I hear the news
Take me to a park that's covered with trees
Tell me on a Sunday please
 

Let me down easy
No big song and dance
No long faces, no long looks
No deep conversation
I know the way we should spend that day
Take me to a zoo that's got chimpanzees
Tell me on a Sunday please
 

Don't want to know who's to blame
It won't help knowing
Don't want to fight day and night
Bad enough you're going
 

Don't leave in silence with no word at all
Don't get drunk and slam the door
That's no way to end this
I know how I want you to say goodbye
Find a circus ring with a flying trapeze
Tell me on a Sunday please
 

Don't want to fight day and night
bad enough you're going
Don't leave in silence with no word at all
Don't get drunk and slam the door
That's no way to end this
I know how I want you to say goodbye
 

Don't run off in the pouring rain
Don't call me as they call your plane
Take the hurt out of all the pain
Take me to a park that's covered with trees
Tell me on a Sunday please

Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Don Black, Charles Hart from the musical - Phantom of the Opera. Sarah was to star both in London's west End and in the USA as Christine Daae. T

his song appears on the following SB albums - Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection and Surrender the Unexpected Songs.

Wishing you were somehow here again

You were once my one companion
You were all that mattered
You were once a friend and father
Then my world was shattered
 

Wishing you were somehow here again
Wishing you were somehow near
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed
Somehow you would be here
 

Wishing I could hear your voice again
Knowing that I never would
Dreaming of you won't help me to do
All that you dreamed I could
 

Passing bells and sculpted angels
Cold and monumental
Seem for you the wrong companions
You were warm and gentle
 

Too many years fighting back tears
Why can't the past just die?
 

Wishing you were somehow here again
Knowing we must say goodbye
Try to forgive, teach me to live
Give me the strength to try
 

No more memories, no more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years
Help me say goodbye
Help me say goodbye

The Music of the Night

written by Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics: Don Black, Charles Hart from the musical - Phantom of the Opera. Sarah was to star both in London's west End and in the USA as Christine Daae.

This song appears on the following SB albums - Sarah Brightman Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection and Surrender the Unexpected Songs, Classics and Diva.

The Music of the Night

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences
 

Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
 

Close you eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before
 

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
 

Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to go
Only then can you belong to me
 

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the harmony which dreams alone can write
The power of the music of the night
 

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night
