The Phantom of the Opera

Ali Canary
He sees her

He wants her

He doesn't know how

To get her

Her voice

So beautiful

Like a silver bell

How sweet that sounds!

Would she sing for him?

The way he is?

Oh no

She would not

She cannot know how

He longs for her

The phantom of the opera

Lurks in the shadows

He listens and loves what he hears

He will play for her

She will sing for him

Come closer,

Come closer, my dear

    The PHAAAAAAAAANTOM of the opera is here (near?), inside my mind! You're making me sing, Bat. :)
