[00:17.631]COSETTE
[00:19.895]How strange
[00:22.367]This feeling that my life’s begun at last
[00:23.823]This change,
[00:25.632]Can people really fall in love so fast?
[00:30.119]What’s the matter with you, Cosette?
[00:33.569]Have you been too much on your own?
[00:36.615]So many things unclear
[00:39.719]So many things unknown.
[00:46.823]In my life
[00:49.254]There are so many questions and answers
[00:53.320]That somehow seem wrong
[00:57.375]In my life
[00:58.999]There are times when I catch in the silence
[01:02.189]The sigh of a faraway song
[01:05.323]And it sings
[01:07.298]Of a world that I long to see
[01:11.018]Out of reach
[01:13.316]Just a whisper away
[01:15.461]Waiting for me.
[01:18.996]Does he know I’m alive?
[01:20.443]Do I know if he’s real?
[01:23.332]Does he see what I saw?
[01:25.627]Does he feel what I feel?
[01:28.507]In my life
[01:30.156]I’m no longer alone
[01:32.683]Now the love in my life
[01:34.325]Is so near
[01:37.450]Find me now, find me here!
[01:46.268]VALJEAN
[01:50.962]Dear Cosette,
[01:51.930]You’re such a lonely child
[01:54.867]How pensive, how sad you seem to me
[01:58.851]Believe me, were it within my power
[02:02.059]I’d fill each passing hour
[02:04.820]How quiet it must be, I can see
[02:08.994]With only me for company.
[02:13.708]COSETTE
[02:14.354]There’s so little I know
[02:15.844]That I’m longing to know
[02:17.050]Of the child that I was
[02:18.130]In a time long ago...
[02:20.814]There’s so little you say
[02:21.955]Of the life you have known
[02:23.555]Why you keep to yourself
[02:24.869]Why we’re always alone
[02:27.491]So dark! So dark and deep...
[02:30.724]The secrets that you keep!
[02:34.526]In my life
[02:36.802]I have all that I want
[02:38.830]You are loving and gentle and good
[02:42.846]But Papa, dear Papa,
[02:46.181]In your eyes I am just like a child
[02:50.064]Who is lost in a wood
[02:52.053]VALJEAN
[02:52.497]No more words
[02:53.933]No more words. It’s a time that is dead
[02:58.558]There are words
[03:00.970]That are better unheard,
[03:02.676]Better unsaid.
[03:04.509]COSETTE
[03:04.814]In my life
[03:07.069]I’m no longer a child and I yearn
[03:09.478]For the truth that you know
[03:13.085]Of the years... years ago!
[03:19.678]VALJEAN
[03:20.191]You will learn
[03:21.862]Truth is given by God
[03:23.413]To us all in our time
[03:24.694]In our turn
[03:29.895](Valjean leaves the garden. Marius and Eponine arrive outside)
[03:36.342]MARIUS
[03:36.709]In my life
[03:39.542]She has burst like the music of angels
[03:42.124]The light of the sun
[03:45.243]And my life seems to stop
[03:48.154]As if something is over
[03:49.586]And something has scarcely begun.
[03:52.667]Eponine
[03:54.117]You’re the friend who has brought me here
[03:57.129]Thanks to you I am one with the gods
[04:00.511]And Heaven is near!
[04:03.280]And I soar through a world that is new that is free
[04:07.526]EPONINE (to herself)
[04:07.877]Every word that he says is a dagger in me!
[04:12.488]In my life
[04:14.197]There’s been no one like him anywhere
[04:17.734]Anywhere, where he is...
[04:21.422]If he asked... I’d be his
[04:28.638]MARIUS & EPONINE
[04:28.877]In my life
[04:31.103]There is someone who touches my life
[04:35.902]MARIUS
[04:36.093]Waiting near
[04:38.262]EPONINE
[04:38.311]Waiting here
