Phantom of the Opera - Iron Maiden with lyrics

Phantom of the opera by Iron Maiden.
From the album Somewhere Back in Time: the best of 1980-1989.
High quality, great version; it's much better than the studio version.
I'm sorry I didn'tput many pictures in the video, but the song's the important part, right? Right.

Here are the lyrics:

I've been looking so long for you now you won't get away from my grasp. You've been living so long in hiding in hiding behind that false mask.
And you know and I know that you ain't got long now to last.
Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past.

You're standing in the wings, there you wait for the curtain to fall.
Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all.
Yeah, I know that you're gonna scratch me, maim me and maul.
You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call.

Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait.
Don't you stray, don't fade away.
Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may.
Don't you stray, from the narrow way.

I'm running and hiding in my dreams you're always there.
You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil, you're just out to scare.
You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air.
Haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair.
