Stranger Than you dreamt it - Can you even Dare to look Or bear to Think of me: This loathsome Gargoyle, who Burns in hell, but secretly Yearns for heaven, Secretly . . . Secretly . . . But, Christine . . . Fear can Turn to love - you'll Learn to see, to Find the man Behind the Monster: this . . . Repulsive Carcass, who Seems a beast, but secretly Dreams of beauty, Secretly . . . Secretly . . . Oh, Christine . . . (He holds out his hand tor the mask, which she gives to Him.He puts it on, turning towards the audience as he Sings): Come we must return - Those two fools Who run my theatre Will be missing you. (The lair sinks into the floor as the PHANTOM and CHRISTINE leave)
