The Music Of the Night [The Phantom of the Opera (Original London Cast)]
Andrew Lloyd Webber, Charles A. Hart, Richard Stilgoe
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently, the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away, from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Purge your thoughts of the life 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 surround you
Feel it, hear it closing in around 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 to a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I 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
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
La notte affila, esalta ogni sensazione
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
L'oscurità agita e risveglia l'immaginazione
Silently, the senses abandon their defenses
Silenziosamente, i sensi abbandonano le loro difese
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Lentamente, dolcemente, la notte srotola il suo splendore
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Afferralo, sentilo, tremulo e tenero
Turn your face away, from the garish light of day
Gira il tuo viso lontano, dalla luce stridente del giorno
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
Allontana i tuoi pensieri dalla luce fredda, insensibile
And listen to the music of the night
E ascolta la musica della notte
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Chiudi gli occhi e arrenditi ai tuoi sogni più oscuri
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Purga i tuoi pensieri della vita che conoscevi prima
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
Chiudi gli occhi, lascia che il tuo spirito inizi a volare
And you'll live as you've never lived before
E vivrai come non hai mai vissuto prima
Softly, deftly, music shall surround you
Dolcemente, abilmente, la musica ti circonderà
Feel it, hear it closing in around you
Sentila, ascoltala che si chiude intorno a te
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
Apri la tua mente, lascia che le tue fantasie si svolgano
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
In questa oscurità che sai di non poter combattere
The darkness of the music of the night
L'oscurità della musica della notte
Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world
Lascia che la tua mente inizi un viaggio verso un mondo nuovo e strano
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Lascia tutti i pensieri del mondo che conoscevi prima
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Lascia che la tua anima ti porti dove desideri essere
Only then can you belong to me
Solo allora potrai appartenere a me
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Fluttuando, cadendo, dolce intossicazione
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Toccatemi, fidatevi di me, assaporate ogni sensazione
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
Lascia che il sogno inizi, lascia che il tuo lato più oscuro ceda
To the power of the music that I write
Al potere della musica che scrivo
