I come from down in the catacombs of the opera house
I hide my face while I long for her
While I long for her lovely voice
I long for her lovely voice
Her lovely voice her lovely voice
She sings la da da da
Through every crack the voice of an angel
She doesn't know who I am, for I am a ghost
Oh, I am a ghost to her
She doesn't know who I am and she never will
Unless I can make her believe
I've gotta make her believe in the darker side of me
So I ask her
Take my hand and follow me on this journey to the underworld
How I want her to want me
Her soaring voice carries into my mind
I'm gonna take her away, (take her away)
With me she will stay forever
Don't deny me, understand that I, I am a monster
I am a monster
Won't you come with me now?
She doesn't know who I am,
For I am a ghost
Oh, I am a ghost to her
She doesn't know who I am, and she never will
Unless I can make her believe
In me, in me, in me
This face is deceitful when it smiles,
It doesn't show how desperate I am inside
So come with me and we'll go,
Believe in me and I'll show you who I am
So you can see the man behind the monster that I am
Fighting my identity, I'll come take you away
She doesn't know who I am,
For I am a ghost, oh I am to her
She doesn't know who I am and she never will
No she never, never will believe believe in me
