Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness wakes and stirs imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Helpless to resist the notes I write...
For I compose the music of the night
Slowly, gently, Night unfurls it's Splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Hearing is believing, music is deceiving
Hard as lightening, soft as candlelight.
Dare you trust the music of the night?
Close your Eyes
For your eyes will only tell the truth
And the truth isnt what you want to see
In the dark it is easy to pretend
That the truth is what it ought to be. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/andrew_lloyd_webber/music_of_the_night.html ]
Softly, deftly, Music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
Open up your mind, Let your fantasies unwind
In this Darkness which you know you cannot fight,
The Darkness of the Music of the Night!
Close your eyes -
Start a journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Close your eyes -
And let music set you free.
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling, Sweet Intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each Sensation
Let the dream begin, Let your darker side give in
To the Power of the music that I write,
The Power of the Music of the Night!
******
You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night.

Music Of The Night meanings:

I am not an angel in the hell, and even do not write some music of the night. But i really know the meaning of one's darker side. So the phantom is right. There is no real flights in a garish light of day.

Christine (the girl in the story) has to reject her old life and live in the dark world which the phantom (one of the men in the story) believes is much more beautiful than the light. Only then can they be together.

This song is less about making love and more about making music. He wants christine because she is beautiful and has a beautiful voice- he tells her "i am the voice, you are the face". He knows in the darkness (night) they can make music together and there no one will judge him for his disfigurement, he doesn't want christine to judge him by his looks either. Such a sad story, poor phantom! ;_;

Basic seduction 101
It belies the understanding of the long term, creating a temporary truth then realizing that you have to live with the results of the deceptive version of truth because you allowed the darkness to dictate what, in the light, you would have recognized as a lie.
Erik escaped into the darkness. It is where he lives and is safe. It is where he found meaning. He is trying to share that with chistine, so that she will stay with him forever, despite his features.

I think he is seducing her... Convincing her to drop her defenses and give in to her attaction to him... To lose herself in the experience of passion and madness and magic of the night... Night where darker sides can be released without fear ...

Close your eyes means he knows that if she sees his face, she will turn away. In the dark it is easy to pretend means that she will love him for his voice.

Music of the night to me means compasion greatness it mean it or shall i say he wants loyalty and he thinks hes been patraded so no he wants reveng but reveng should not have been the way but overall it means he wants love and he feels empty without love so this means with or without he needs to be nurtured and thats what this song to me is explaining in a way we could not imagine so listen closely in u could understand what this is trying to sh u this song means help honor me and at least love me ,but you didnt so i want reveng
