MARIUS GOES IN TO COSETTE, LEAVING
EPONINE OUTSIDE THE GATE.
MARIUS
A heart full of love
A heart full of song
I'm doing everything all wrong
Oh God, for shame
I do not even know your name
Dear Mad'moiselle
Won't you say?
Will you tell?
COSETTE
A heart full of love
No fear, no regret.
MARIUS
My name is Marius Pontmercy.
COSETTE
And mine's Cosette.
MARIUS
Cosette, I don't know what to say.
COSETTE
Then make no sound.
MARIUS
I am lost.
COSETTE
I am found!
MARIUS
A heart full of light.
COSETTE
A night bright as day.
MARIUS
And you must never go away
Cosette, Cosette!
COSETTE
This is a chain we'll never break.
MARIUS
Do we dream?
COSETTE
We're awake!
MARIUS
A heart full of love.
COSETTE
A heart full of you.
MARIUS
A single look and then I know
COSETTE
I knew it too.
MARIUS
From today.
COSETTE
Every day.
MARIUS & COSETTE
For it isn't a dream
Not a dream
After all.
EPONINE (interjections)
He was never mine to lose
Why regret
What could not be?
These are words
He'll never say
Not to me
Not to me
Not to me
His heart
Full of love
He will never
Feel this way.
MARIUS AND COSETTE MOVE AWAY AS
MONTPARNASSE ENTERS FURTIVELY:
