Текст песни «Andrew Lloyd Webber - Prologue»


A+ A-

Madame Giry: "Phantasma. City of Wonders... Mr. Y Presents... Marvels, astonishments... Human prodigies. The Ooh La La Girl, five performances daily... Christine Daae, the soprano of the century." Gone, all gone.

Fleck: Yes... there's nothing left, nothing but ghosts. But I knew you'd come back... Madame Giry.

Madame Giry: You! You're still here?

Fleck: Of course we're still here. The freaks, the monstrous, the bizarre... Where else could we exist but here? And after the tragedy... After the master disappeared with the child... After the fire that consumed everything.

Madame Giry: His dream. Our dream.

Fleck: Remember how it was? Remember?
Coney Isle...
Glistening and glimmering!
Rising bright,
Drenched with light...
See it smile,
Beckoning and shimmering!
All agleam...
Like a dream...!

Fleck and Madame Giry: Every fantasy set free!
Sodom rising by the sea!

Madame Giry: Coney Isle!
Miracle on miracle!
Speed and sound
all around.
Mile by mile,
Loud and lewd and lyrical.
Thrill and thrill,
never still.
All America was there.
Beggar next to billionaire!

In they came,
chasing sensation and romance...
Eyes aflame,
desperate for pleasures yet unknown.
Night and day,
pouring in by the hundreds of thousands!
Swept away,
As their every desire was made real!
