Song lyrics
Night time 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 candle light,
Dare you trust the music of the night

Close your eyes,
For your eyes will only tell the truth,
And the truth isn't what you want to see,
In the dark it is easy to pretend,
That the truth is what it ought to be

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 can not 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

In my opinion, Michael Crawford has an immortal voice. It's as if there is no limit to his vocal range! The Music of the Night is Crawford's best.

I love The film the whole story of The phantom of the opera is fabulous!!! this is one of my favorite songs from it as it has such great words ,and what is happening in the story as this song is sung is so touching as christine is showed into the darkness by the phantom

I think cristine should marry the phantom cos he is less evil than the one she loves, woteva his name is ( i dont know really but i think the phantom is the goody who everyone is being mean to) I give it the hugest thumbs up in the world

I love it[i]
