verse 1 Once there was a night beneath a moonless sky Too dark to see a thing, too dark to even try I strode to your side to tell you I must go I couldn't see your face but sensed you even so Chorus And I touched you (Christine) And I felt you (Phantom) And I heard those ravishing refrains The music of the past The singing in your veins And I held you (Christine) And I touched you (Phantom) And embraced you (Christine) And I felt you (Phantom) And with every breath and every sigh I felt no longer scared I felt no longer shy At last our feelings bared Beneath a moonless sky verse 2 And blind in the dark, as soul gazed into soul I looked into your heart and saw you pure and whole Cloaked under the night with nothing to suppress A woman and a man, no more and yet no less Chorus 2 And I kissed you (Christine) And caressed you (Phantom) And the world around just fell away We said things in the dark We never dared to say And I caught you (Phantom) And I kissed you (Christine) And I took you (Phantom) And caressed you (Christine) With a need too blatant to deny And nothing mattered then Except for you and I Again and then again Beneath a moonless sky verse 3 And when it was done before the sun could rise Ashamed of what I was, afraid to see your eyes I stood while you slept and whispered a goodbye And slipped into the dark beneath a moonless sky Chorus 3 And I loved you Yes, I loved you I'd have followed anywhere you lead I woke to swear my love And found you gone instead And I loved you (How I loved you) And I left you (How I loved you) And I had to, both of us knew why We both knew why And yet I won't regret From now until I die The night I can't forget Beneath a moonless sky
