All I Ask of You



Erik:

No more talk of falseness

Forget your husband dear

I'm here

They will not harm you

His hate should not alarm you

Let me give you freedom

Let music dry your tears

I'm here

With you aside you

To love you and to hide you


Christine:

Say you'll help me every waking moment

Turn my head

With talk of no more lies

Say you need me with you

Now and always

Promise me we are safe and in truth

That's all I ask of you


Erik:

Let me be your Guardian

Let me be your life

Your safe

No one will throw you

Your pain is far behind you


Christine:

All I want is freedom

A world with no more fright

And you

Always beside me

To hold me and to guide me


Erik:

Then say you'll share with me one love

One lifetime

Let him go and I will marry you

Say you need me with you here

Around you

Anywhere you go let me go too

Christine, that's all I ask of you


Christine;

Say you'll share with me

One love

One lifetime

Let me be your wife

And share your duties too


Share each day with me

Each bright

Each homely

Say you love me


Erik;

You know I do


Both;

Love me, that's all I ask of you


(They kiss)


Anywhere you go let me go too, love me, that's all I ask of you


Meg;

I gave you my dancing

Made your song take wing

And now

How you've repaid me

denied me and filleted me

You were bound to love her

When she'd willingly sing...

Erik....

Erik...


Erik/Christine;

Say you'll share with me

one love

one lifetime


Erik

Say that word, and bear my children too


Christine

Share each night with me

Each caress each melody


Meg;

You will curse the day you did not do

All that the dancer asked of you!
