Tonight I'm singing "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera with my dad! We're singing at a recital at my school!
I'm Christine and he's Raul (well duh! haha).
It's cool cause I found my love of singing from singing PotO growing up with my dad! And AIAOY is like my fave duet in the musical! So singing it with my dad will be meaningful since it's my last recital before I leave home!
It's a love song... but it can also be about family love!
All I Ask Of You
by Andrew Lloyd Webber
RAOUL
No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.
CHRISTINE
Say you love me every waking moment,
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.
RAOUL
Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you.
CHRISTINE
All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.
RAOUL
Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you need me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
Christine, that's all I ask of you
CHRISTINE
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
say the word and I will follow you.
TOGETHER
Share each day with me,
each night, each morning.
CHRISTINE
Say you love me!
RAOUL
You know I do.
TOGETHER
Love me, that's all I ask of you.
