(PANTING)

(GRUNTS)

(GROANING)

(GRUNTING)

(EXCLAIMS IN DISTRESS)

Thank you!

Long live the revolution!

Here's a pretty ring.

Oh.

Hello.

(YELPS)

You're alive! I saved you!

You!

(PANTING)

How do I get out of here?

It's that way!

All the way down

and to the left!

(GROANING)

(GRUNTS)

(SIGHS IN RELIEF)

(PANTING)

(SINGING) It's you, Javert

I knew you

wouldn't wait too long

The faithful servant

at his post once more

This man's done no wrong

He needs a doctor's care

I warned you

I would not give in!

I won 't be swayed!

Another hour yet

Then I'm yours

All our debts are paid

The man of mercy comes again

And talks of justice!

Come, time is running short!

Look down, Javert

He's standing in his grave!

One more step

and you die.

(SINGING) Who is this man?

What sort of devil is he?

To have me caught in a trap

and choose to let me go free?

It was his hour at last

to put a seal on my fate

Wipe out the past

and wash me

clean off the slate

All it would take was

a flick of his knife

Vengeance was his

and he gave me back my life!

Damned if I live in

the debt of a thief!

Damned if I yield at

the end of the chase!

I am the law and

the law is not mocked!

I'll spit his pity

right back in his face!

There is nothing on Earth

that we share!

It is either

Valjean or Javert!

And my thoughts fly apart

Can this man be believed?

Shall his sins be forgiven?

Shall his crimes be reprieved?

And must I now begin to doubt

Who never doubted

all these years?

My heart is stone

and still it trembles

The world I have known

is lost in shadow

Is he from heaven

or from hell?

And does he know

That granting me my life today

This man has

killed me even so?

I am reaching but I fall

And the stars

are black and cold

As I stare into the void

of a world that cannot hold

I'll escape now

from that world

From the world of Jean Valjean

There is nowhere I can turn

There is no way to go on

TURNING WOMAN 1:
(SINGING)

Did you see them

going off to fight?

TURNING WOMAN 2:

Children of the barricade

who didn 't last the night

Did you see them

lying where they died?

Someone used to cradle them

and kiss them when they cried

Did you see them

lying side by side?

(SINGING) There's a grief

that can't be spoken

There's a pain goes on and on

Empty chairs at empty tables

Now my friends

are dead and gone

Here they talked of revolution

Here it was they lit the flame

Here they sang about tomorrow

And tomorrow never came

From the table in the corner

They could see a world reborn

And they rose

with voices ringing

And I can hear them now

The very words

that they have sung

Became their last communion

On this lonely barricade

At dawn

Oh, my friends,

my friends, forgive me

That I live and you are gone

There's a grief

that can 't be spoken

There's a pain goes on and on

Phantom faces at the windows

Phantom shadows on the floor

Empty chairs at empty tables

Where my friends

will meet no more

Oh, my friends, my friends

Don 't ask me

What your sacrifice was for

Empty chairs at empty tables

Where my friends will sing

No more

(SINGING) Every day you walk

with stronger step

You walk with longer step

The worst is over

Don 't think about it,

Marius!

With all the years

ahead of us!

I will never go away

And we will be

together every day

Every day

We'll remember that night

And the vow that we made

A heart full of love

She was never mine to keep

A night full of you

She is youthful, she is free

COSETTE:
The words are old

but always true

Cosette, Cosette!

Love is

the garden of the young

COSETTE:
I saw you waiting

and I knew

Thank God you are here

Waiting for you

Let it be

At your feet

Thank God you are home

Let it be

VALJEAN :
A heart full of love

BOTH :
And it wasn't a dream

This I give you this day

BOTH :
Not a dream after all

Monsieur, this is a day

I never can forget

Is gratitude enough

for giving me Cosette?

Your home shall be with us

And not a day shall pass

But we will prove our love

To you, whom we shall call

A father to us both

A father to us all

Not another word, my son

There's something now

that must be done

There lived a man

whose name was Jean Valjean

He stole some bread to

save his sister's son

For 19 winters

he served his time

In sweat

he washed away his crime

Years ago

He broke parole and

lived a life apart

How could he tell Cosette

and break her heart?

Marius...

It's for Cosette

this must be faced

If he is caught,

she is disgraced

The time has come

to journey on

And from this day

he must be gone

Who am I?

Who am I?

You're Jean Valjean

Monsieur, you cannot leave

Whatever I tell

my beloved Cosette

She will never believe

Tell her

I've gone on a journey

A long way away

Tell her my heart was

too full for farewells

It is better this way

Promise me, monsieur

Cosette will never know

What I have spoken

Why I must go

For the sake of Cosette

It must be so

Thank you, Marius.

(SINGING) Where's he gone

without a word?

That wouldn't be

his way to go

Why so sudden,

why so strange?

(GROANING)

Oh, did he say

how long he'll be gone?

All he asked for me to say

is he's on a journey far away

He can't leave us now

How he breaks my heart

And we will never be apart

I promise you.

(JOYFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

The Baron and

Baroness du Thnard.

(SINGING)

Go away, Thenardier!

Do you think

I don't know who you are?

He's not fooled

Told you so

Show monsieur

what you've come here to show

Tell the boy what you know

Pity to disturb you

at a feast like this

But 500 francs

surely wouldn't come amiss

In God's name,

say what you have to say

He speaks

You pay!

What I saw, clear as light

Jean Valjean in

the sewers one night

Had this corpse on his back

Some boy he had killed

in a vicious attack

I was there, never fear

I even found me

this fine souvenir

I know this

This is mine

This is surely

some heavenly sign

Then it's true

Then I'm right

Jean Valjean was

my savior that night

Jean Valjean, the old con

You pay up

or I'll say where he's gone

Where is he?

Where is he?

The convent!

Cosette, come with me.

Come with me.

BOTH:
(SINGING)

Watch the buggers dance

Watch 'em till they drop!

Keep your wits about you

and you'll stand on top!

Masters of the land

Always get our share

Clear away the barricades

and we're still there

We know where

the wind is blowing

Money is the stuff we smell

And when we're rich

as Croesus

Jesus! Won't

we see you all in hell!

How dare you!

(SINGING)

Alone I wait in the shadows

I count the hours

until I sleep

I dreamed a dream

Cosette stood by

It made her weep

to know I die

Alone at the end of the day

Upon this wedding night

I pray

Take these children, my Lord,

to Thy embrace

And show them grace

God on high

Hear my prayer

Take me now

To Thy care

Where You are

Let me be

Take me now

Take me there

Bring me home

(SIGHS)

Bring me home

(GROANS)
