Pantoum of the Opera

Go now heartless one, its a time to say goodbye. Together we danced to the music of the night, but now the sound of music brings tears to the eye. I could have danced all night, forever held you tight. Together we danced to the music of the night. I dreamed a dream where you said to my heart "I do." I could have danced all night, forever held you tight. Now any dream will do that does not include you. I dreamed a dream where you said to my heart "I do," You said: "Its an impossible dream, forget those." Now any dream will do that does not include you. In time, each memory dies like a wilted rose. You said: "Its an impossible dream, forget those." Said: "If ever I would leave you, not to be sad." In time, each memory dies like a wilted rose, as seasons of love balance between good and bad. Said: "If ever I would leave you, not to be sad; your soul was born defying gravity - be strong." As seasons of love balance between good and bad, my heart believes somewhere someone sings my soul's song. Your soul was born defying gravity - be strong, but now the sound of music brings tears to the eye. My heart believes somewhere someone sings my soul's song.
