PLEASE READ to understand (lyrics & dialogue below) - watch in HD for best experience. :) I love this show, but honestly I was so mad at Ross in Season 2 and at Demelza at season 3- lol- even if his actions weren’t abnormal for that time period – still didn’t like it- but I love the way they showed them work through their hardships together, which finally brought about her fondest hope. Story follows lyrics – Demelza never feeling good enough, especially to win Ross’s true devotion and love, which he seems always to keep for Elizabeth, and dreams he held for them, from their past. (I mainly wished to concentrate on Demelza’s POV, to go with lyrics, so I didn’t show much of her tit for tat) – Even when Ross tells her he loves her and expresses that love, she always feels like the substitute, the distraction and the sacrifice to what he really wants, feeling only second best, his sometimes bad or selfish decisions only emphasizing that. In lyrics when the lines seem hopeless –(i. e. -“You won’t try for me not now”)- a few of those occasions and others I showed where Demelza felt that, and proved true in that moment – but then showing how Ross did come to her, etc, showing he truly did care/ want her with him.
Dialogue:
Ross - Demelza? Where's Demelza? ...I engaged you for two years; what do you mean by running away?
Demelza- Has she come to take you?
R- No, my love, she will never take me...
Verity - You do not...?
D- Love him? Beyond anything. But...he's never used that word to me, and I most doubt he ever shall.
Francis - I don't wonder Ross loves you.
D- Do you suppose he still does? Sometimes I think he loves Elizabeth better
F- You have one failing - And that is that you don't think well enough of yourself.
R- You think I no longer love you?
D- Not in that way...
R- Demelza...my idiocy has been spectacular...my true, real, and abiding love is not for her. It is for you...
:')
“Missing” lyrics performed by Evanescence
[Intro:]
Please, please, please
Can you stop the fire? Can you stand to fight her? You can't stop the fire. You won't say the words
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"
You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
[Chorus:]
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"
[Chorus:]
And if I bleed, I'll bleed
Knowing you don't care
And if I sleep just to dream of you
I'll wake without you there
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me...
[Chorus:]

![PotO/LND - Opus of the Night (Erik ♥ Christine) Phantom of the Opera
PLEASE READ to understand - (lyrics below) - Well, I didn’t get my Halloween vid up in time - lol - just wasn’t happy with it and decided to wait as I ironed out a few kinks - hope you enjoy! : )…. This is the sequel to Ghost Opera (Kamelot) - and for my own story, it is the PREQUEL to my Ghost Opera PotO vid. In that vid (I will post the link here in description) - unseen forces control the opera house, and you find out that Erik and Christine are themselves ghosts there (though no one else knows it), playing their music throughout time. The story for this prequel vid: We find out how Christine died, and see Erik’s guilt and continued desire to keep his promise to her - having wanted to make their dreams of music and togetherness come true, making her his star. He encourages and seduces her to join with him at the Opera House, after having found her body by the lake (in song, it’s a river). At first she resists - still upset, uncertain, and hurt by all that happened and how Erik was a part of that hurt - and she warily approaches the idea to enter back into that life. But through his sweet persuasions he soon entrances her with his dreams, making them her dreams, their love also taking wing. They begin their ghost symphony - entertaining all those who enter the doors with her song and his music.
Symbolism - of course! lol The frame that flashes with the beat resembles them - red (his color), green (her color), blue (the color of music) - (yeah, I took that from HP as most of my symbolism tends to lean that way now. lol) When it shows her as a ghost mid-song, the clips shown with it are the dreams Erik has showing her what they can be/who they are together. At the end, it shows all they accomplished as they share an intimate moment after the performance, and their true nature as ghosts shimmers forth with the reality of who they are…. sparkle clips - Pond5

Lyrics to “Opus of the Night” performed by Kamelot
It was cold the day they found you by the river
Broken dreams had turned to ice upon your cheek
It was cold the day I swore
Until my dying breath
Id give my life to heal those broken dreams
Ive waited
Longed for the day
To show you
To take you away
[Chorus]
Rise to the queen of the symphony
Watch her step into the light
Surrender your heart to the melody
Let it take flight
Shell sing to you
The opus of the night
Trembling steps into a world she had forgotten
Dusty roses on a royal velvet seat
And the letter in her name
Brings her back again
Familiar the notes upon the sheet
Ive waited
Longed for the day
Seduce me
Take me away
[Chorus]
A dark silhouette
Lingering age old desperation
Reviving grand nostalgia
Come shivers of pure admiration
Close your eyes
Now let your emotions take flight
Goddess in white
[Chorus]
One last encore for the queen of the stage
One final bow for the old prima donna
I sing to you
The opus of the night
(coming up - Outlander, a Calivia vid and more…)

![PotO/ LND- Stay With Me (Erik ♥ Christine)- Phantom of the Opera - a request
PLEASE READ: (lyrics below)- by request for Matugo1- (she asked for the song and gave me leave to vid what Phantoms I wanted - so I chose all my faves. :)) A beautiful song for Erik and Christine...Vid follows lyrics- Christine wants Erik to stay with her forever, but pain and fear often tear them apart throughout all their time of knowing each other. I used their son, Gustave, in one of the frames, to show her dream of becoming a family with Erik, in building her world around him. The foggy frames show their confusion, pain, and fear- the clear frames that follow show clarity that following their heart gave to them in those instances they did.
Lyrics for Stay With Me performed by Danity Kane
Raindrops, Fall from, Everywhere
I reach out, For you, But youre not there
So I stood, Waiting, In the dark
With your picture, In my hands
Story of a broken heart
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Dont let me go
Cause I cant be without you
Just stay with me
And hold me close
Because Ive built my world around you
And I dont wanna know whats its like without you
So stay with me
Just stay with me
Im trying and hoping, for the day
When my touch is enough
To take the pain away
Cause Ive searched for so long
The answer is clear
Well be okay if we dont let it disappear
[Chorus]
Ive searched my heart over
So many many times
No you and I, is like no stars to light the sky at night
Our picture hangs up to
Remind me of the days
You promised me wed always
And never go away
Thats why I need you to stay
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Dont let me go
Cause I cant be without you
Just stay with me
And hold me close
Because Ive built my world around you
And I dont wanna know whats its like without you
So stay with me
Just stay with me
[Fades]
oh.. oh oh
dont leave
so I stay waiting in the dark...

![PotO- Only Hope (Erik ♥ Christine)- Phantom of the Opera- a request
PLEASE READ: (lyrics below)- A great way to kick in the new year (and Happy 2014 to all :D), with a beautiful song and a favorite fandom. This was requested by 2 people - WyndChyldv2 and FlawedButLoved1993 - who asked for this song with clips from the 2004 movie (and was also from my to do list. lol :)) Hope you guys like it! Story: Christine sings to Erik of her deepest desires and though Erik feels the same about her, he must be convinced she wants what he does...Mostly in Cs pov, a little in Eriks- Symbolism: shades of blue, purple, and pink in tint and in stars = hopes and dreams wished for shades of gold and other shades going into normal color = hopes at last being realized silver and gold stars = dreams at last being lived out. Sparkle clips: SparkleyEdward, WhOaGRLProd, StarovAlex, Keith Heidebrecht (by the way, for those interested, I am halfway finished with the next act of A Phantom Christmas Carol and still plan to post it this month.)
Only Hope [Written by Switchfoot] performed by Mandy Moore
Theres a song thats inside of my soul
Its the one that Ive tried to write over and over again
Im awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now youre my only hope
Sing to me the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now youre my only hope
I give You my destiny
Im giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs Im giving it back
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now youre my only hope ...
