IN MY LIFE

In my life
I have all that I want
You are loving and gentle and good.
But Papa, dear Papa,
In your eyes I am just like a chile
Who is lost in a 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

[Valjean leaves the garden; Marius and
Eponine are outside.]

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 & Eponine
In my life
There is someone who touches my life

Marius
Waiting near

Eponine
Waiting here

A HEART FULL OF LOVE

Marius
A heart full of love
A heart full of song
I'm doing everything all wrong
Oh God, for shame
I do not even know your name
Dead Mad'moiselle
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

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 heart full of love

Eponine [outside, interjecting]
He was never mine to lose

Cosette
A heart full of you

Eponine
Why regret what could not be?

Marius
A single look and then I knew.

Eponine
These are words he'll never say

Cosette
I knew it too.

Eponine
Not to me...

Marius
From today...

Eponine
Not to me...

Cosette
Every day

Eponine
Not for me...

Cosette & Marius
For it isn't a dream
Not a dream
After all!

Eponine
His heart full of love
He will never
Feel this way...
