Poor, Poor Erik

Poor, poor, Erik

So lonely, so sad

Longing to be free

From the face you have

You love, but a shadow

Just a sparkling doll

So beautiful, so sweet

To another, she's given all

Poor, poor Erik

A phantom you remain

Beneath an opera house

Hopes fall like rain

Our dear Phantom

So lonely, so sad

We watch you and cry

At the life you had

Poor, poor Erik

Human kind is cruel

It tears your love apart

And you lose the duel

Poor, poor Erik
