This is just gorgeous. Out of all the pieces in LND, I think this translates best to pure instrumental - the melody is so wistful and sad; you don't even need the lyrics to know what it's about. The simplicity with the piano is stunning - bravo.
She looks for sympathy I give her sorrow She asks for honesty I've none to borrow She needs my tender kiss She begs it off me I give her ugliness Why does she love me? She yearns for higher things Things I can't give her The rush that music brings I can't deliver And even when she sings And soars above me I try to clip her wings Why does she love me? One more drink, sir That's what I need Don't you think, sir? Leave the hurt behind She wants the man I was Husband and father At least, she thinks she does She needn't bother Beneath this mask I wear There's nothing of me Just horror, shame, despair Why does she love me? How 'bout you, sir? Tell me what am I to do, sir? Leave the hurt behind Morning, Bernie, coffee please Hurry up before I freeze I'll just take it black Mother said, I'd find you here Miss Giry Do you know where you are? Hell, I imagine Around here they call it suicide hall It's where people end up When they don't know where else to go The hopeless, the desperate The good place to step off the side Of the pier and quietly vanish You seem to be a regular Me? I come here to swim This town is coarse and cold and mean It's hard to keep your conscience clean Faceless in the crowd Anything's allowed And so I come at dawn each day Come to wash it all away Sink into the sea, blue and cool and kind Let it set me free, let the past unwind Leave the hurt behind You should never have come to America It's not a place for people like you and Christine It's too easy to forget who you are and where you belong That's why Mother says you must leave here Now, take your wife and the boy and go Leave? What about tonight? The concert, the money? Am I to just run away from him? When the sun rises tomorrow We can all start again, clean Sail across the sea Put us out of mind Close your eyes and flee Let yourself stay blind Leave this place behind
I swear Love Never Dies is underappreciated (maybe because of its inaccuracies plus POTO is better off alone. well not for me) but if people would look beyond the storyline and listen to the soundtrack, I swear its the best!
lol Yeah, if you ignore the entire story, character (lack of) development, and aimless lyrics and just focus on the instrumental covers of the music, YEAH, it's a great show.
Please please Please move the camera to a position where its possible to see what notes you are hitting! I want to learn it, but just can't make the bass notes fit :-( BTW, you are truly talented, and beautiful song choise ;)

She looks for sympathy
I give her sorrow
She asks for honesty
I've none to borrow
She needs my tender kiss
She begs it off me
I give her ugliness
Why does she love me?
She yearns for higher things
Things I can't give her
The rush that music brings
I can't deliver
And even when she sings
And soars above me
I try to clip her wings
Why does she love me?
One more drink, sir
That's what I need
Don't you think, sir?
Leave the hurt behind
She wants the man I was
Husband and father
At least, she thinks she does
She needn't bother
Beneath this mask I wear
There's nothing of me
Just horror, shame, despair
Why does she love me?
How 'bout you, sir?
Tell me what am I to do, sir?
Leave the hurt behind
Morning, Bernie, coffee please
Hurry up before I freeze
I'll just take it black
Mother said, I'd find you here
Miss Giry
Do you know where you are?
Hell, I imagine
Around here they call it suicide hall
It's where people end up
When they don't know where else to go
The hopeless, the desperate
The good place to step off the side
Of the pier and quietly vanish
You seem to be a regular
Me?
I come here to swim
This town is coarse and cold and mean
It's hard to keep your conscience clean
Faceless in the crowd
Anything's allowed
And so I come at dawn each day
Come to wash it all away
Sink into the sea, blue and cool and kind
Let it set me free, let the past unwind
Leave the hurt behind
You should never have come to America
It's not a place for people like you and Christine
It's too easy to forget who you are and where you belong
That's why Mother says you must leave here
Now, take your wife and the boy and go
Leave?
What about tonight?
The concert, the money?
Am I to just run away from him?
When the sun rises tomorrow
We can all start again, clean
Sail across the sea
Put us out of mind
Close your eyes and flee
Let yourself stay blind
Leave this place behind
I am for the Phantom and Christine 100%, but I love this song!
As much as I hate Raoul, I love this.
I love this song
Wonderfully done - such a beautiful piece of music!
Beautiful =)
is it just me or I find this version better than the actual song
I'ts beautiful...but I feel sorry for Raoul ... I love them both
I love how you play and it's just smooth the whole way and the dynamics are really great! you are a great piano Ayer
you having an amazing talent.
I swear Love Never Dies is underappreciated (maybe because of its inaccuracies plus POTO is better off alone. well not for me) but if people would look beyond the storyline and listen to the soundtrack, I swear its the best!
I agree
lol Yeah, if you ignore the entire story, character (lack of) development, and aimless lyrics and just focus on the instrumental covers of the music, YEAH, it's a great show.
Hey, this sounds absolutely beautiful, could you send me the sheet music, or tell me the whereabouts of where you got it?? Thank you! xx
This was just amazing. Trully amazing!
Do you mind if I use it as a backtrack on my channel to sing? (obviously credited)
Please, PLEASE do Meg's Aria.... :/
Where did you get the sheet music for this? Any chance you could send me it for an audition?
i'm gonna make a cover of this song. but with why does HE love me instead. haha
Do you have this exact sheet music where I can use it ?
Please please Please move the camera to a position where its possible to see what notes you are hitting! I want to learn it, but just can't make the bass notes fit :-(
BTW, you are truly talented, and beautiful song choise ;)
it is a very good film but I prefer the first film better
Film?
player. sorry. how long have you played?
would you happen to know where I can get the sheet music? ; ~; I'm on my knees here...
And what key is it in
I cannot find sheet music for anything Phantom related, much less a book with all of the songs in it, please can you tell me where I can find one?

somthing like that Mia? :)
How difficult is this to play?
Raoul is kind of a Dirtbag but I feel bad
She looks for sympathy
I give her sorrow
She asks for honesty
I've none to borrow
She needs my tender kiss
She begs it off me
I give her ugliness
Why does she love me?
She yearns for higher things
Things I can't give her
The rush that music brings
I can't deliver
And even when she sings
And soars above me
I try to clip her wings
Why does she love me?
