Reunion


Four days to go to reunion. Then I was a wide-eyed ten year old. Hope this cast will be just as good.

Christine:
Have you gorged yourself at last, in your lust for blood?
Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?

Phantom:
That fate, which condemns me to wallow in blood
has also denied me the joys of the flesh ...
This face -the infection which poisons our love ...

This face,which earned a mother's fear and loathing
A mask,my first unfeeling scrap of clothing
Pity comes too late -turn around and face your fate:
an eternity of this before your eyes!

Christine:
This haunted face holds no horror for me now,
It's in your soul that the true distortion lies.

I found this song in the movie soundtrack not the musical:

Learn to be lonely

Child of the wilderness
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness

Who will be there for you
Comfort and care for you
Learn to be lonely
Learn to be your one companion

Never dreamed out in the world
There are arms to hold you?
You've always known
Your heart was on its own

So laugh in your loneliness
Child of the wilderness
Learn to be lonely
Learn how to love life that is lived alone
Learn to be lonely

Life can be lived
Life can be loved

Alone.

Enough said, go watch if you can!

The Phantom is coming back from pseudo-retirement and apparently replaced Michael Crawford at the West End.

I reckon anyone who is privileged to sing opposite Sarah Brightman must be quite talented - Aussie or not.

I'll be there next month! *can't wait*
