gahh! I don't really know what to say. So I'll just put the lyrics of a song up, 'coz I'm quite hooked on the POTO soundtrack. But anyway, I must say that I've been keeping up this blog for a good while! *pats self on head
Point Of No Return - Phantom, Christine
Phantom:
Passarino - go away!
For the trap is set and waits for its prey . . .
You have come here
in pursuit of your deepest urge,
in pursuit of that wish,
which till now has been silent, silent . . .
I have brought you,
that our passions may fuse and merge -
in your mind you’ve already succumbed to me
dropped all defences completely succumbed to me -
now you are here with me:
no second thoughts,
you’ve decided, decided . . .
Past the point of no return -
no backward glances:
the games of make believe are at an end
Past all thought of “if” or “when” -
no use resisting:
abandon thought,
and let the dream descend . . .
What raging fire shall flood the soul?
What rich desire unlocks its door?
What sweet seduction lies before us . . .?
Past the point of no return,
the final threshold -
what warm, unspoken secrets will we learn?
Beyond the point of no return . . .
Christine:
You have brought me
to that moment where words run dry,
to that moment
when speech disappears into silence, silence . . .
I have come here,
hardly knowing the reason why . . .
In my mind,
I’ve already imagined our bodies entwining defenceless and silent -
and now I am here with you:
no second thoughts, I’ve decided, decided . . .
Past the point of no return -
no going back now:
our passion-play has now, at last, begun . . .
Past all thought of right or wrong -
one final question:
how long should we two wait, before we’re one . . .?
When will the blood begin to race
the sleeping bud burst into bloom?
When will the flames, at last, consume us . . .?
Both:
Past the point of no return
the final threshold -
the bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn . . .
We’ve passed the point of no return . . .
Phantom:
Say you’ll share with me one love, one lifetime . . .
Lead me, save me from my solitude . . .
Say you want me with you, here beside you . . .
Anywhere you go let me go too -
Christine that’s all I ask of . . .
