Meaning of Wandering Child by Andrew Lloyd Webber
Wandering Child
Andrew Lloyd Webber
Listen to the full song on Apple Music
"Wandering Child" by Andrew Lloyd Webber, from the musical The Phantom of the Opera, explores the complex emotions and choices faced by the main character, Christine.
The song begins with the Phantom expressing his longing to guide and protect Christine, referring to her as a "wandering child" who is lost and helpless without his influence. Through the lyrics, he establishes himself as her guardian figure, offering his guidance and claiming to be her "Angel." He questions whether she sees him as an angel, father, friend, or phantom, highlighting his desire for her acknowledgement and acceptance.
In response, Christine wonders about the identity of the figure before her. She questions whether he truly is her angel or father, or if she is seeing a phantom. Her confusion and curiosity emerge as she asks him to speak, seeking clarity and understanding.
The Phantom then reminds Christine of their past connection as he calls himself her Angel, suggesting that she may have forgotten their previous encounters or the impact he had on her life. He tries to rekindle that connection, emphasizing the depth of his longing and the echo of his desires.
Christine, torn between her mind and soul, acknowledges the conflict within her. She expresses the wild beating of her mind against the figure before her, possibly representing her fears and uncertainties. However, despite this inner struggle, her soul ultimately obeys and complies with the Phantom's presence.
Both characters then repeat their pleas and doubts about one another. The Phantom, once again emphasizing Christine's denial of him as her Angel, emphasizes the importance of true beauty that she has turned away from. Christine, on the other hand, acknowledges the rejection but pleads with the Phantom to not shun her, as she still considers him her strange Angel.
This anguished exchange between the two characters depicts their intense emotional connection and the conflict Christine experiences as she contemplates her relationship with the Phantom. The Phantom views himself as her provider and protector, offering her guidance and support, while Christine wrestles with her conflicting feelings towards him. This song sets the stage for the complex dynamics and choices that will shape the rest of the story.
