Wolverine vs. Gladiator in: Les Miserables Page #7

---

I feel his arms around me

And when I lose my way

I close my eyes

And he has found me

In the rain

The pavement

shines like silver

All the lights

Are misty in the river

In the darkness the trees

are full of starlight

And all I see is him and me

forever and forever

And I know

It's only in my mind

That I'm talking to myself

And not to him

And although

I know that he is blind

Still I say

There's a way for us

I love him

But when the night is over

He is gone,

the river's just a river

Without him

the world around me changes

The trees are bare

and everywhere

the streets are

full of strangers

I love him

But every day I'm learning

All my life

I've only been pretending

Without me,

his world will go on turning

A world that's

full of happiness

That I have never known

(SOBS)

I love him

I love him

I love him

But only on my own

(SINGING)

One day more

Another day,

another destiny

This never-ending

road to Calvary

These men who seem

to know my crime will

surely come a second time

One day more

I did not live until today

How can I live

when we are parted?

One day more

BOTH :
Tomorrow

you'll be worlds away

And yet with you

my world has started

One more day all on my own

BOTH :
Will we ever meet again?

One more day

with him not caring

BOTH :
I was born

to be with you

What a life

I might have known

BOTH :
And I swear

I will be true

But he never saw me there

One more day

before the storm

Do I follow

where she goes?

At the barricades

of freedom!

Shall I join

my brothers there?

When our ranks

begin to form

Do I stay and do I dare?

Will you take

your place with me?

ALL:
The time is now!

The day is here!

One day more!

One day more to revolution

We will nip it in the bud

We'll be ready

for these schoolboys

They will wet themselves

with blood!

One day more!

Watch 'em run amuck

Catch 'em as they fall

BOTH :
Never know your luck

when there's a free-for-all

Here's a little dip

There a little touch

BOTH :
Most of them are goners

So they won 't miss much!

ALL:
One day

to a new beginning

Raise the flag

of freedom high!

Every man will be a king!

There's a new world

for the winning!

There's a new world to be won

Do you hear the people sing?

My place is here!

I fight with you!

One day more!

We will join

these people's heroes

We will follow

where they go

One more day all on my own

We will learn

their little secrets

We will know

the things they know

One day more!

BOTH :
Tomorrow

you'll be worlds away

One more day

to revolution

What a life

I might have known

JAVERT:
We will nip it

in the bud

BOTH :
And yet with you

my world has started

We'll be ready

for these schoolboys

Tomorrow

will be far away

ALL:
Tomorrow

is the judgment day

Tomorrow we'll discover

What our God in heaven

has in store

One more dawn!

One more day!

One day more!

(DRUMS BEATING RHYTHMICALLY)

CROWD:
(SINGING)

Do you hear the people sing

Singing the song of angry men?

It is the music of a people

who will not be slaves again

When the beating of your heart

Echoes

the beating of the drums

There is a life about to start

when tomorrow comes!

Will you join in our crusade?

Who will be strong

and stand with me?

Beyond the barricade

Is there a world

you long to see?

Then join in the fight

That will give you

the right to be free!

Do you hear the people sing

Singing the song of angry men?

It is the music of a people

who will not be slaves again!

When the beating of

your heart echoes

the beating of the drums

There is a life about to start

when tomorrow comes!

Will you give all you can give

So that our banner

may advance?

Some will fall

and some will live

Will you stand up

and take your chance?

The blood of the martyrs

will water

the meadows of France!

Do you hear the people sing

Singing the song of angry men?

It is the music of a people

who will not be slaves again!

When the beating of

your heart echoes

the beating of the drums

There is a life about to start

when tomorrow comes!

(BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY)

CAVALRY OFFICER:
Halt!

Draw!

(CROWD EXCLAIMS)

(SHOUTING)

She's an innocent woman!

Murderer!

(CROWD CLAMORING)

Come here, you!

Charge!

(CAVALRY OFFICERS YELLING)

Push them to the right.

(GROANS)

(SCREAMS)

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, monsieur.

To the barricades!

Vive la France!

MAN 1:
Get to the barricade!

MARIUS:
Come on!

MAN 2:
Get down! Get down!

Go, go, go!

Get off your arse!

It's begun!

MAN 3:
The barricade!

Sorry, madame. Thank you.

What are you doing?

We need as much furniture

as you can throw down!

Throw everything you have!

Below!

MAN 4:
Watch yourself,

watch yourself.

(STUDENTS GRUNTING)

(COW MOOING)

Go on, boys!

No!

Thank you, madame.

I need a volunteer!

Someone who can

find out their plan

and when they will attack.

(SINGING)

I can find out the truth

I know their ways

Fought their wars

Served my time

In the days

Of my youth

See? The people unite!

I pray you're right

Dogs will bark

GAVROCHE:
Fleas will bite!

They will do what is right

ENJOLRAS:
Red,

the blood of angry men!

STUDENTS:
Black,

the dark of ages past!

Red, a world about to dawn!

Black,

the night that ends at last!

JOLY:
He's back!

(SINGING) Listen, my friends

I have done as I said

I have been to their lines

I have counted each man

I will tell what I can

Better beware

They have armies to spare

And our danger is real

We will need all our cunning

to bring them to heel

Have faith!

If you know what

their movements are

we'll spoil their game

There are ways that

a people can fight

We shall overcome

their power!

I have overheard their plans

There will be

no attack tonight

They intend to starve you out

Before they

start a proper fight

Concentrate their force

Hit us when it's light

Liar!

Good evening, dear Inspector

Lovely evening, my dear!

I know this man, my friends

His name's Inspector Javert!

So don 't believe

a word he says because

none of it's true

This only goes to show

what little people can do

Bravo, little Gavroche

You're the top of the class

So what are we going to do

with this snake in the grass?

Take this man and throw him

in the tavern in there

The people will

decide your fate,

Inspector Javert

Shoot me now

or shoot me later

Every schoolboy

to his sport!

Death to each

and every traitor!

I renounce

your people's court!

We keep looking forward!

What are you doing?

ENJOLRAS:
Get down!

GAVROCHE:

Get down!

No!

Fall back!

Fall back,

or I blow the barricade!
