i told kathleen i'd write this song the first time i saw "the phantom of the opera" with her. here it is

SYMPATHY FOR THE PHANTOM
Since the moment I first heard you sing
I’ve needed you with me, to serve me, to sing
I wait in shadows; a hideous fiend
Longing for the heaven of my own Christine

You see my face and draw back in horror
God! Why can’t you see that I adore her?

Since the moment I first heard you sing
I’ve needed you with me, to serve me, to sing
I wait in the shadows; a hideous fiend
Longing for the heaven of the angelic Christine Daae

You see my face and draw back in horror
God! Why can’t you see that I adore her?
You will curse the day you did not do
All the phantom asked of you!

I gave you my music
Made your song take wing
Now how you’ve repaid me
Denied me and betrayed me
And tough you have passed on
My love lives on for the rest of these days
I leave you my rose wrapped in a black bow
Laying at your grave

Insolent boy
This slave of fashion
How could this fool
Outshine my passion
Those who speak of what the know
Find that prudent silence is wise
Hold your tongue
Keep your hand at the level of your eyes

Since the moment I first heard you sing
I’ve needed you with me, to serve me, to sing
I wait in the shadows; a foul and hideous fiend
Longing for the heaven of the angelic Christine Daae

You see my face and draw back in horror
God! Why can’t you see that I adore her?
You will curse the day you did not do
All the phantom asked of you!

I gave you my music
Made your song take wing
Now how you’ve repaid me
Denied me and betrayed me
And tough you have passed on
My love lives on for the rest of these days
I leave you my rose wrapped in a black bow
Laying at your grave

Damn you! You little prying
Pandora! You little demon!
This is what you wanted to see?
This is what you wanted to see?
Curse you! You little lying
Delilah! You little viper!
Now you cannot ever be free!
Damn you! Curse you! X2
Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Hide your face
So the world will never find you

I gave you my music
Made your song take wing
Now how you’ve repaid me
Denied me and betrayed me
And tough you have passed on
My love lives on for the rest of these days
I leave you my rose wrapped in a black bow
Laying at your grave

Damn you! You little prying
Pandora! You little demon!
This is what you wanted to see?
This is what you wanted to see?
Curse you! You little lying
Delilah! You little viper!
Now you cannot ever be free!
Damn you! Curse you! X2

Paper faces on parade
Hide your face
So the world will never find you (fades out)
