[Cosette is sitting in the garden at Rue Plumet]

Cosette:
How strange, this feeling that my life’s begun at last
This change, can people really fall in love so fast?
What’s the matter with you, Cosette?
Have you been too much on your own?
So many things unclear
So many things unknown.

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 see?
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!

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.
Éponine, 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.

Éponine:
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 & Éponine:
In my life, there is someone who touches my life ...

Marius:
Waiting near!

Éponine:
Waiting here!
