Lyrics

[00:01.42] Past the point of no return - no backward glances:
[00:07.27] the games we've played till now are at an end ...
[00:18.97] Past all thought of "if" and "when" - no use resisting:
[00:26.18] abandon thought, and let the dream descend ...
[00:35.98] What raging fire shall flood the soul?
[00:41.03] What rich desire unlock its door?
[00:45.36] What sweet seduction lies before us ... ?
[00:54.02] Past the point of no return, the final threshold -
[01:02.32] what warm, unspoken secrets will we learn?
[01:09.87] Beyond the point of no return ...
[01:20.17] You have brought me to that moment where words run dry,
[01:29.13] to that moment where speech disappears into silence,
[01:36.23] silence ...
[01:39.43] I have come here, hardly knowing the reason why ...
[01:48.28] In my mind, I've already imagined our bodies entwining,
[01:54.59] defenceless and silent - and now I am here with you:
[02:00.99] no second thoughts, I've decided,
[02:09.26] decided ...
[02:13.76] Past the point of no return - no going back now:
[02:22.46] our passion-play has now, at last, begun ...
[02:32.77] Past all thought of right and wrong - one final question:
[02:42.02] how long should we two wait, before we're one ... ?
[02:50.82] When will the blood begin to race, the sleeping bud burst into bloom?
[02:59.98] When will the flames, at last, consume us ... ?
[03:08.90] Past the point of no return, the final threshold -
[03:18.11] the bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn ...
[03:27.91] We've passed the point of no return ...
[03:50.58] Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime ...
[04:01.39] Lead me, save me from my solitude ...
[04:12.29] Say you want me with you, here beside you ...
[04:23.44] Anywhere you go let me go too -
[04:34.10] Christine, that's all I ask of ...
[04:58.66] What is it? What has happened? Ubaldo!
[05:02.70] Oh, my God ... my God ...
[05:04.61] We're ruined, Andre - ruined!
[05:06.16] Monsieur le Vicomte! Come with me!
[05:08.06] Oh, my darling, my darling ... who has done this? You! Why did you let this happen?
[05:13.56] Monsieur le Vicomte, I know where they are.
[05:15.71] But can I trust you?
[05:16.71] You must. But remember: your hand at the level of your eyes!
[05:20.01] But why ... ?
[05:21.01] Why? The Punjab lasso, monsieur. First Buquet. Now Piangi.
[05:23.72] Like this, monsieur. I'll come with you.
[05:26.57] No, Meg! No, you stay here! Come with me, monsieur. Hurry, or we shall be too late ...
