The Beauty Underneath Lyrics

Andrew Lloyd Webber The Beauty Underneath

Phantom: Have you ever yearned to go
Past the world you think you know
Been enthralled to the call
To the beauty underneath
Have you let it draw you in
Past the place where dreams begin
Felt the full breathless pull
Of the beauty underneath

When the dark unfolds its wings
Do you sense the strangest things
Things no one would ever guess
Things mere words cannot express

Gustave: Yes.

Phantom: Do you find yourself beguiled
By the dangerous and wild
Do you feed on the need for the beauty underneath
Have you felt your senses surge
And surrender to the urge
And been hooked as you looked
At the beauty underneath

When you star behind the night
Can you glimpse its primal might
Might you hunger to possess
Hunger that you can't repress

Gustave: Yes
It seems so beautiful
So strange yet beautiful
Everything's just as you said

Phantom: And he's so beautiful
Perhaps too beautiful
What I suspect cannot be
And yet somehow we both see
The very same way

Gustave: Is there music in your head
Have you followed where it led?
And be graced with the taste of the beauty underneath
Does it fill your every sense
Is it terribly intense
Tell me you need it too
Need the beauty underneath

Phantom and Gustave: When he lifts his voice and sings,
Don't you feel amazing things?
Things you know you can't confess
Things you thirst for, nonetheless

Gustave: It soars so beautiful

Phantom: Can it be?

Gustave: Almost too beautiful.

Phantom and Gustave: Do you see what I see?

Gustave: Heavenly.

Phantom: To him it's beautiful
My world is beautiful

Gustave: How can this be what it seems?

Phantom and Gustave: All of my most secret dreams
Somehow set free

Phantom: You can feel it

Gustave: Yes.

Phatnom: Come closer

Gustave: Yes.

Phantom: You've no fear of the beauty underneath.
You can face it

Gustave: Yes.

Phantom: You can take it

Gustave: Yes!

Phantom: You see through

Phantom and Gustave: To the beauty underneath

Phantom: To the splendor

Gustave: The splendor

Phantom: And the glory

Gustave: And the glory

Phatnom: To the truth of the beauty underneath

Gustave: The beauty underneath

Phantom: You accept it

Gustave: Yes!

Phantom: You embrace it.

Gustave: Yes.

Phantom: Let me show you the beauty underneath
To the splendor

Gustave: To the splendor

Phantom: And the glory

Gustave: And the glory

Phantom: To the truth of the beauty underneath

Gustave: Beauty underneath

Phantom: You accept it

Gustave: Yes.

Phantom: You embrace it

Gustave: Yes.

Phantom: Let me show you the beauty under-

Gustave: *scream*
