Think Of Me - Live At The Royal Albert Hall/2011

Think of me
Think of me fondly, when we've said good bye
Remember me every so often, promise me you'll try
On that day that not so distant day, when you were far away and free
If you ever find a moment, spare a thought for me

Think of me
Think of me warmly

He's there
The phantom of the opera
He's there the phantom of the opera

Show a little courtesy
Mademoiselle, please (are you alright?)
Buquet, where's Buquet?
Get that man down here!
Buquet, chief of the flies, he's responsible for this
Buquet, for god's sake man what's going on up there?

Please monsieur don't look at me
As God's my witness I was not at my post
Please monsieur there's no one there
And if there is well then it must be a ghost
He's there the phantom of the opera

Lord Heavens I have never known such insolence
Señora please! These things do happen!
These things do happen...
You have been here five minutes, what do you know?
See? These things do happen all the time
For the past three years these things do happen
And did you stop them happening? No!
And you! Oh you're as bad as him
These things do happen
Well, until you stop these things happening
These things does not happen...

Amateurs
I don't think there's much more I can do to assist you gentlemen
Good luck, if you need me I shall be in Frankfurt
But Monsieur!
La Carlotta will be back! (You think so Monsieur?)
Yes (I have a message Sir, from the Opera Ghost)
Oh God in Heaven you're all obsessed
He merely welcomes you to his opera house
Commands that you continue to leave box 5 empty for his use
And reminds you that his salary is due (His salary)

Monsieur Lefèvre payed him 20,000 francs a month
But perhaps you could afford more
With the Vicomte de Chagny as your patron
Madame I had hoped to have made that announcement myself
Will the Vicomte be at the performance this evening Monsieur? (In our box)
Madame, who is the understufy for the role?
There is no understudy Monsieur, the production is new!

Christine Daaé could sing it sir
The ballet girl?
She's been taking lessons!
Oh from whom?
I don't know sir
Oh not you as well, can you believe it?
Full house and we have to cancel!
Daaé, that's a curious name, any relation to the violinist?
My father, sir (Let her sing for you Monsieur)
She has been well taught

Very well
Oh, from the beginning of the Aria then!
Mademoiselle, gentlemen please!
You can do this!

Think of me
Think of me fondly, when we've said good bye
Remember me every so often, promise me you'll try
(Andre this is doing nothing for my nerves)
(Don't fret Firmin)
On that day, that not so distant day
When you were far away and free
If you ever find a moment, spare a thought for me
(Madame! Moinsieur!)

And though it's clear, though it was always clear
That this was never meant to be
If you happen to remember, stop and think of me

Think of August when the world was green
Don't think about the way
Things might have been

Think of me, think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me trying too hard
To put you from my mind
Think of me, please say
You'll think of me what ever else you chose to do
There will never be a day when I won't think of you

Can it be?
Can it be Christine? Bravo! Bravo!
Long ago, it seemed so long ago
How young and innocent we were
She may not remember me
But I remember her

Flowers fade, the fruits of summer fade
They had their seasons, so do we
But please promise me that sometimes
You will think of...
Of me (Brava! Isn't it marvellous!)

Christine Daaé that was unbelieveable!
Yes, you did well
He will be pleased
And you, you were a disgrace!
Such ronds de jambe, such temps de cuisse
Come, we rehearse now!
