Bella: βYouβre impossibly fast and strong, your skin is pale white and ice cold. Your eyes change colour, and sometimes you speak like youβre from a different time, you never eat or drink anything. You donβt go out in the sunlight. How old are you?β
Edward: βSeventeenβ
Bella: βHow long have you been seventeen?β
Edward: βA whileβ
Bella: βI know what you areβ
Edward: βSay it, out loud. Say it!β
Bella: βVampireβ
Edward: βAre you afraid?β
Bella: βNoβ
Edward: βThen answer the most basic question, what do we eat?β
Bella: βYou wonβt hurt meβ
Bella: βWhere are going?β
Edward: βUp a mountain, out of the cloud bank. You need to see what I look like in the sunlightβ
Edward: βThis is why we donβt show ourselves in the sunlight, people would know weβre different. This is what I amβ
Bella: βTheyβre like diamonds, theyβre beautifulβ
Edward: βBeautiful?! This is the skin of a killer Bellaβ
Edward: βIβm a killer!β
Bella: βI donβt believe thatβ
Edward: βThatβs because you believe a lie, camouflage. Iβm the worlds most dangerous predator, everything about me invites you in. My voice, my face, even my smell. As if I wouldnβt need any of that!β
Edward: βAs if you can out run me!β
Edward: βAs if you could fight me off!β
Edward: βIβm designed to killβ
Bella: βI donβt careβ
Edward: βIβve killed people beforeβ
Bella: βIt doesnβt matterβ
Edward: βI wanted to kill you, Iβve never wanted a humans blood so much in my lifeβ
Bella: βI trust youβ
Edward: βDonβtβ
Bella: βIβm here I trust youβ
Edward: βMy family and I weβre different from others of our kind, we only hunt animals, itβs your scent. Itβs like a drug to me, itβs like youβre my own personal brand of heroinβ
Bella: βWhy did you hate me so much when we met?β
Edward: βI did, only for making me want you so badly. I still donβt know if I can control myselfβ
Bella: βI know you canβ
Edward: βI canβt read your mind, you have to tell me what youβre thinkingβ
Bella: βNow Iβm afraidβ
Edward: βGoodβ
Bella: βIβm not afraid of you, Iβm only afraid of losing you, because I think youβre gonna disappearβ
Edward: βI donβt know how long Iβve waited for youβ
Edward: βAnd so the lion fell I love with a lambβ
Bella: βWhat a stupid lambβ
Edward: βWhat a sick and masochistic Lionβ

How can one create music like this??? Itβs just heart stopping, breath taking, seductive. I find myself focusing on every single instrument at once and itβs just magical.

I cannot explain the feeling either. I need to be in that moment so desperately every time I hear this sound track

I know this has been said many times...but Twilight really had an amazing soundtrack

I'm still quite shocked they did not use this in any future installments, such a wonderful piece! I was also under the impression this was the 'theme' for the series too so was let down when it didn't make an appearance in New Moon
