Cosette
I saw him once Then he was gone
We were like dreamers at night
Who meet as in a trace, then part again!
Two phantoms in the shadows of the moon
Can people really fall in love so soon?
He walked alone He seemed alone like me
Could he have known That moment was my destiny?
I had to run away, And it was like a dream

I saw him once The dream was true
I saw him once, And once will do!

Cosette
In my life There are so many questions and answers
That somehow seem wrong In my life
There are times when I catch in the silence
The sigh of a faraway song And it sings
Of a world that I long to see Out of reach
Just a whisper away Waiting for me!

Does he know I'm alive? Do I know if he's real?
Does he see what I saw? Does he feel what I feel?

In my life I'm no longer alone
Now the love in my life Is so near
Find me now, find me here!

Valjean
Dear Cosette, You're such a lonely child
How pensive, how sad you seem to me
Believe me, were it within my power
I'd fill each passing hour How quiet it must be, I can see
With only me for company.

Cosette
There's so little I know That I'm longing to know
Of the child that I was In a time long ago
There's so little you say Of the life you have known
Why you keep to yourself Why we're always alone
So dark, so dark and deep The secrets that you keep!

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 child
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

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
