I Remember .../Stranger Than You Dreamt It ... - Live At The Royal Albert Hall/2011

I remember there was mist
Swirling mist upon a vast, glassy lake
There were candles all around
And on the lake, there was a boat
And in the boat, there was a man

Who was the shape in the shadows?
Who is the face in the mask?

No!
Damn you
You little prying Pandora
You little demon
Is this what you wanted to see?

Curse you
You little lying Delilah
You little viper
Now you cannot ever be free

Damn you!
Curse you!

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
Dream of beauty
Secretly, secretly
Oh, Christine

Come, we must return
Those two fools who run my theatre will be missing you
