Les Miserables movie - The Bargain lyrics

<br>

(Valjean and Young Cosette, hand-in-hand, approach the now empty inn, singing. They arrive at the inn)<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

I found her wandering in the wood<br>

This little child, I found her trembling in the shadows<br>

And I am here to help Cosette<br>

And I will settle any debt you may think proper<br>

I will pay what I must pay<br>

To take Cosette away.<br>

There is a duty I must heed,<br>

There is a promise I have made<br>

For I was blind to one in need<br>

I did not see what stood before me<br>

Now her mother is with God<br>

Fantine's suffering is over<br>

And I speak here with her voice<br>

And I stand here in her place<br>

<br>

And from this day and evermore<br>

<br>

MME. THENARDIER<br>

Let me have your coat, M'sieur<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

Cosette shall live in my protection<br>

<br>

THENARDIER<br>

You are very welcome here<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

I will not forsake my vow<br>

<br>

THENARDIER<br>

Take a glass<br>

<br>

MME. THENARDIER<br>

Take a chair<br>

<br>

VALJEAN<br>

Cosette shall have a father now!<br>
