Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Past the point of no return
No backward glances
The games we played till now are at an end
Past all thought of "if" or "when"
No use resisting
Abandon thought and let the dream descend
[Verse 2]
What raging fire shall flood the soul?
What rich desire unlocks its door?
What sweet seduction lies before us?
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
What warm unspoken secrets will we learn?
Beyond the point of no return
[Verse 3]
You have brought me
To that moment where words run dry
To that moment where speech disappears into silence
Silence
[Verse 4]
I have come here
Hardly knowing the reason why
In my mind I've already imagined
Our bodies entwining, defenseless and silent
And now I am here with you
No second thoughts
I've decided
Decided
[Verse 5]
Past the point of no return
No going back now
Our passion play has now at last begun
Past all thought of right or wrong
One final question
How long should we two wait before we're one?
When will the blood begin to race?
The sleeping bud burst into bloom?
When will the flames at last consume us?
[Verse 6]
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
The bridge is crossed
So stand and watch it burn
We've passed the point of no return
[Verse 7]
Say you'll share with me
One love
One lifetime
Lead me
Save me from my solitude
[Verse 8]
Say you want me with you
Here beside you
Anywhere you go
Let me go too
Christine, that's all I ask of–
[Outro]
What is it?
What has happened?
Ubaldo!
Oh my God! My God!
We're ruined, André, ruined!
Monsieur le Vicomte! Come with me!
Oh my darling! My darling!
Who has done this to you?
You!
Why did you let this happen?
Monsieur le Vicomte, I know where they are!
But can I trust you?
You must!
But remember: your hand at the level of your eyes!
But why?
Why? The Punjab lasso, Monsieur
First Buquet!
And now Piangi!
Like this, Monsieur!
I'll come with you
No, Meg!
No, you stay here!
Come with me, Monsieur!
Hurry, or we shall be too late!
