All I Want
Sung by: Arwen and Elrond
Take off of "All I Ask Of You"
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
Arwen:
All this talk of darkness,
A mortal life fills me with fear
Yet, he's here, I must be here for him
My heart may warm and calm him.
(To her father)
Let me have my freedom
Let this ship leave me here
He's here, alive and healthy
I'll guard him and I'll love him.
(To an invisible Aragon)
She told me he'd love me every waking moment
I remember when me we met in summer time
(To her father)
Please leave me, but I know you love me
Leave me and the fate of this earth
That's all I ask of you.
Elrond:
Valinor'll be your shelter
The sea is your path to light
You'll be safe, war will not find you
He'll be left far behind you.
I know that you want freedom,
A world where you rule with him,
But I need you here beside me,
He'll die, even if you love him.
Arwen:
Say you'll leave me this one love, my lifetime
I mortal life I know I must choose
I can't always have you here, beside me.
If you must go, then I can't go with you.
Father, that's all I want of you.
Elrond: (Spoken)
There is nothing here for you. Only death.
(Sung)
Say you'll be with me, immortal with no lifeline
Say the word, and the ship will be here for you
Be with me tomorrow, at light of morning.
Arwen: (Spoken)
I choose a mortal life.
Elrond: (giving in)
So you love him.
Arwen:
You know I do.
Let me love him
That's all I want of you.
Elrond:
Anywhere you go, I'll be with you.
Always, watching from Valinor, whatever you do.
