"The Mirror (Angel of Music)" is a song from Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera. The song was written by ALW, Charles Hart, and Richard Stilgoe. In this song, the Angel of Music expresses his anger about Raoul de Chagny's attempts to flatter Christine Daaé, whom the Angel invites to meet. The song directly transitions to the next song in the musical, The Phantom of the Opera.

[PHANTOM]
Insolent boy!
This slave of fashion
Basking in your glory!

Ignorant fool!
This brave young suitor
Sharing in my triumph!

[CHRISTINE]
Angel! I hear you!
Speak, I listen
Stay by my side, guide me!

Angel, my soul was weak
Forgive me
Enter at last, Master!

[PHANTOM]
Flattering child, you shall know me
See why in shadow I hide
Look at your face in the mirror
I am there inside!

[CHRISTINE]
Angel of Music!
Guide and guardian!
Grant to me your glory!

Angel of Music!
Hide no longer!
Come to me, strange angel

[PHANTOM]
I am your Angel of Music
Come to me: Angel of Music

I am your Angel of Music
Come to me: Angel of Music
