(Phantom)
Past the point of no return -
no backward
glances:
our games of make belive
are at an end . .
.

Past all thought of "if" or "when" -
no use
resisting:
abandon thought,
and let the dream
descend . . .

What raging fireshall flood the soul?

What rich desire unlocks its door?
What sweet
seduction lies before us . . .?
Past the point of no
return,
the final threshold, what warm,
unspoken
secrets will we learn?
Beyond the point
of no return
. . .

AMINTA (CHRISTINE)
You have brought me
to that moment
where words run dry, to that moment
where speech disappears into silence,
silence . . .

I have come here, hardly knowing
the reason why .
. .
In my mind, I've already
imagined our
bodies entwining
defenceless and silent -
and now I
am here with you:
no second thoughts, I've decided,

decided . . .

Past the point of no return
no going back now:
our passion-play has now, at last,

begun . . .

Past all thought of right or wrong
-
one final question:
how long should we two wait,
before
we're one . . .?

When will the
blood begin to race
the sleeping bud burst into bloom?
When will the flames, at last, consume
us . . .?

BOTH
Past the point of no return
the final
threshold, the bridge
is crossed, so stand and watch it
burn . . .

We've passed the point of no return
. . .
(By now the audience and the POLICE have realized
that SIGNOR PIANGI is dead behind the curtain, and it is
the PHANTOM who sings in his place. CHRISTINE knows it too. As
final confirmation, the PHANTOM sings):

PHANTOM
Say you'll share with me one
love, one lifetime . .
.
Lead me, save me from my solitude . . .
(He takes
from his finger a ring and holds it out to her.
Slowly she
takes it and puts it on her finger.)
Say you want me with
you,
here beside you . . .
Anywhere you go let me go
too,
Christine that's all I ask of . . .
