COSETTE: How strange This feeling that my life's begun at last This change, Can people really fall in love so fast? What's the matter with you, Cosette? Have you been too much on your own? So many things unclear So many things unknown. In my life There are so many questions and answers That somehow seem wrong... In my life There are times when I catch in the silence The sigh of a faraway song And it sings Of a world that I long to see Out of reach Just a whisper away Waiting for me. Does he know I'm alive? Do I know if he's real? Does he see what I saw? Does he feel what I feel? In my life I'm no longer alone Now the love in my life Is so near Find me now, find me here! VALJEAN: Dear Cosette, You're such a lonely child How pensive, how sad you seem to me Believe me, were it within my power I'd fill each pa**ing hour How quiet it must be, I can see With only me for company. COSETTE: There's so little I know That I'm longing to know Of the man that you were Of the time long ago... There's so little you say Of the life you have known Why you keep to yourself Why we're always alone So dark! So dark and deep... The secrets that you keep! In my life Please forgive what I say You are loving, and gentle, and good But papa, dear papa In your eyes I am still like the child Who's lost in the wood VALJEAN: No more words No more words It's a time that is dead There are words That are better unheard Better unsaid COSETTE: In my life I'm no longer a child and I yearn For the truth that you know Of the years... years ago! VALJEAN: You will learn Truth is given by God To us all in our time In our turn... MARIUS: In my life She has burst like the music of angels The light of the sun. And my life Seems to stop as if something is over And something has scarcely begun Eponine, you're the friend who has brought me here Thanks to you, I am one with the gods and Heaven is near And I soar through a world that is new that is free EPONINE: [to herself] Every word that he says is a dagger in me. In my life There's been no one like him anywhere Anywhere, where he is If he asked... I'd be his... MARIUS AND EPONINE: In my life... There is someone who touches my life. MARIUS: Waiting near... EPONINE: Waiting here... MARIUS: A heart full of love. A heart full of song. Im doing everything all wrong. Oh God, for shame, I do not even know your name. Dear mademoiselle, Won't you say? Will you tell? COSETTE: A heart full of love. No fear... No regret! MARIUS: My name is Marius Pontmercy COSETTE: And mine's Cosette! MARIUS: Cosette! ... I don't know what to say. COSETTE: Then make no sound MARIUS: I am lost... COSETTE: I am found... MARIUS: A heart full of light MARIUS AND COSETTE: A night bright as day! MARIUS: And you must never go away... Cosette, Cosette! COSETTE: This is a chain we'll never break. MARIUS: Do I dream? COSETTE: I'm awake... MARIUS: A hear full of love... EPONINE: [Interjecting] He was never mine to lose... MARIUS AND COSETTE: A heart full of you EPONINE: MARIUS: Why regret what could not be? A single look and then I knew... COSETTE: I knew it too! EPONINE: These are words he'll never say... Not to me... MARIUS: From today... EPONINE: Not to me... Not for me... COSETTE: Everyday... EPONINE: MARIUS AND COSETTE: His heart full of love... For it isn't a dream... He will never feel this way! Not a dream after all!
