Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Tarja Turunen]
In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came
That voice which calls to me and speaks my name
And do I dream again? For now I find
The Phantom of the Opera is there inside my mind

[Verse 2: Marko Hietala]
Sing once again with me, our strange duet
My power over you grows stronger yet
And though you turn from me to glance behind
The Phantom of the Opera is there inside your mind

[Verse3: Tarja Turunen & Marko Hietala]
Those who have seen your face draw back in fear
I am the mask you wear, it's me they hear
Your spirit and my voice in one combined
The Phantom of the Opera is there inside my/your mind

He's there, the Phantom of the Opera
Beware, the Phantom of the Opera

[Verse 4: Tarja Turunen & Marko Hietala]
Where all your fantasies, you always knew
That man and mystery lay both in you
And in this labyrinth where night is blind
The Phantom of the Opera is here inside my/your mind

[Outro]
Sing, my Angel of Music
He's there the Phantom of the Opera
Sing for me
Sing, my Angel of Music
Sing for me

Impossible. That dude is by far the best Phantom I have ever heard. The woman must be an alien from another universe.

The chemistry between Marco and tarja is so haunting and magically perfect!!

[BBntw]

Tarja is one of the reasons why Nightwish became what made them famous! Her voice is incredible! Never get tired listening to her! Also her voice and Marco were the perfect harmony!

[kimberlyh.]

One of the greatest Frontwomen of all time. The stage presence, charisma, prowess, passion, vocal inflection and intensity are unmatched. Best Phantom and Christine pairing ever.

[seanjames]

Nightwish aren't just a band. They're a spiritual journey. I'm honored to be a part of the journey.

[MakuraZalis]

Tarja doesnt get enough credit. Her voice is so strong for being an operatic soprano. That note towards the end bruh. The male vocals jesus. This was amazing

[leandrart]

I came here after hearing the new version, I've just gotta say... This one is unbeatable, perfect match from the greatest perfomers Nightwish will never have again...

[juanchibrossa]

We love you all! Tuomas, Tarja, Floor, Emppu, Marko, Sami, Jukka, Kai, Troy, Anette. And all the crew members!
