I found her wandering in the wood This little child, I found her trembling in the shadows And I am here to help Cosette
And I will settle any debt you may think proper
I will pay what I must pay
To take Cosette away.
There is a duty I must heed,
There is a promise I have made For I was blind to one in need
I did not see what stood before me
Now her mother is with God
Fantine's suffering is over
And I speak here with her voice
And I stand here in her place
And from this day and evermore Let me have your coat, M'sieur Cosette shall live in my protection You are very welcome here I will not forsake my vow Take a glass Take a chair Cosette shall have a father now!
What to do? What to say? Shall you carry our treasure away? What a gem! What a pearl! Beyond rubies is our little girl! How can we speak of debt? Let's not haggle for darling Cosette! Dear Fantine, gone to rest Have we done for her child what is best? Shared our bread, shared each bone Treated her like she's one of our own! Like our own, Monsieur! Your feelings do you credit, sir And I will ease the parting blow Let us not talk of bargains or bones or greed Now, may I say, we are agreed?
That would quite fit the bill If she hadn't so often been ill Little dear, cost us dear Medicines are expensive, M'sieur Not that we begrudged a sou It's no more than we Christians must do!
One thing more, one small doubt There are treacherous people about No offense, please reflect Your intentions may not be... correct?
No more words, here's your price. Fifteen hundred for your sacrifice Come, Cosette, say goodbye, Let us seek out to friendlier sky. Thank you both for Cosette It won't take you too long to forget.
Come, Cosette, come, my dear From now on I will always be here Where I go, you will be. Will there be castles and children to see? Yes, Cosette, Yes, it's true There's a castle just waiting for you...
