Turn Out the Lights it will be, when it's time you'll know the sound it will be the whisper soft in your ear it will be in the soft caress that promises to fulfill your request with deepest sighs long ago lullabies of far-away symphonies there I'll begin to stroke your heart and those strings within shall flutter till in crescendo deafening and muscles quivering you'll sing back to me that's when I shall turn out the lights so you may replay the music of the night ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 1 October, 2000 |

with deepest sighs long ago lullabies of far-away symphonies there I'll begin to stroke your heart and those strings within shall flutter till in crescendo deafening and muscles quivering you'll sing back to me that's when I shall turn out the lights so you may replay the music of the night INNOCENT?????????? WELL maybe if I read it blind...lol.....actually my friend, there is innocense of the promise of two lovers in this one. I can see it in the beginning but then you sweep us away with wellllllll.....need I say it? it will be, when it's time you'll know the sound it will be the whisper soft in your ear it will be in the soft caress that promises to fulfill your request Excellent work my friend. |

"there I'll begin to stroke your heart" too many great lines and feelings in this to really pick just one, being in a ""softer"" mood today, i had to touch upon this as being my favorite feeling.... ![]() GE |

YOU - should have written the lyrics for Phantom ~G~ - Such Music of the Night as I imagine with your beautiful words - far exceeds any from Webber's lyricist |
