Song by Cosette, Valjean, M<br /><br>

(Cosette stands in her garden on Rue Plumet)<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

How strange<br>

This feeling that my life's begun at last<br>

This change,<br>

Can people really fall in love so fast?<br>

What's the matter with you, Cosette?<br>

Have you been too much on your own?<br>

So many things unclear<br>

So many things unknown.<br>

<br>

In my life<br>

There are so many questions and answers<br>

That somehow seem wrong<br>

In my life<br>

There are times when I catch in the silence<br>

The sigh of a faraway song<br>

And it sings<br>

Of a world that I long to see<br>

Out of reach<br>

Just a whisper away<br>

Waiting for me.<br>

<br>

Does he know I'm alive?<br>

Do I know if he's real?<br>

Does he see what I saw?<br>

Does he feel what I feel?<br>

<br>

In my life<br>

I'm no longer alone<br>

Now the love in my life <br>

Is so near<br>

Find me now, find me here!<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

Dear Cosette,<br>

You're such a lonely child<br>

How pensive, how sad you seem to me<br>

Believe me, were it within my power<br>

I'd fill each passing hour<br>

How quiet it must be, I can see<br>

With only me for company.<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

There's so little I know<br>

That I'm longing to know<br>

Of the child that I was<br>

In a time long ago...<br>

There's so little you say<br>

Of the life you have known<br>

Why you keep to yourself<br>

Why we're always alone<br>

So dark! So dark and deep...<br>

The secrets that you keep!<br>

<br>

In my life<br>

I have all that I want<br>

You are loving and gentle and good<br>

But Papa, dear Papa,<br>

In your eyes I am just like a child<br>

Who is lost in a wood<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

No more words<br>

No more words. It's a time that is dead<br>

There are words<br>

That are better unheard,<br>

Better unsaid.<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

In my life<br>

I'm no longer a child and I yearn<br>

For the truth that you know<br>

Of the years... years ago!<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

You will learn<br>

Truth is given by God<br>

To us all in our time<br>

In our turn<br>

<br>

(Valjean leaves the garden. Marius and Eponine arrive outside)<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

In my life<br>

She has burst like the music of angels<br>

The light of the sun<br>

And my life seems to stop<br>

As if something is over<br>

And something has scarcely begun.<br>

Eponine<br>

You're the friend who has brought me here<br>

Thanks to you I am one with the gods<br>

And Heaven is near!<br>

And I soar through a world that is new that is free<br>

<br>

EPONINE(to herself)<br>

Every word that he says is a dagger in me!<br>

In my life<br>

There's been no one like him anywhere<br>

Anywhere, where he is...<br>

If he asked... I'd be his<br>

<br>

MARIUS & EPONINE<br>

In my life<br>

There is someone who touches my life<br>

<br>

MARIUS <br>

Waiting near<br>

<br>

EPONINE<br>

Waiting here<br>

<br>

A Heart Full of Love<br>

<br>

<br>

(Marius goes into the garden, leaving Eponine outside the gate)<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

A heart full of love<br>

A heart full of song<br>

I'm doing everything all wrong<br>

Oh God, for shame<br>

I do not even know your name<br>

Dear Mad'moiselle<br>

Won't you say?<br>

Will you tell?<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

A heart full of love<br>

No fear, no regret<br>

<br>

M,ARIUS<br>

My name is Marius Pontmercy<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

And mine's Cosette<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

Cosette, I don't know what to say<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

Then make no sound<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

I am lost<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

I am found!<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

A heart full of light<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

A night bright as day<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

And you must never go away<br>

Cosette, Cosette<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

This is a chain we'll never break<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

Do I dream?<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

I'm awake!<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

A heart full of love<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

A heart full of you<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

A single look and then I knew<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

I knew it too<br>

<br>

MARIUS<br>

From today<br>

<br>

COSETTE<br>

Every day<br>

<br>

COSETTE & MARIUS<br>

For it isn't a dream<br>

Not a dream after all.<br>

<br>

<br>

EPONINE(Interjecting)<br>

He was never mine to lose<br>

Why regret what cannot be?<br>

These are words he'll never say<br>

Not to me...<br>

Not to me...<br>

Not to me...<br>

<br>

His heart full of love<br>

He will never feel this way...<br>

<br>

(Marius and Cosette move away as Montparnasse enters furtively)<br>
