In My Life - Claude-Michel Schönberg

[00:00.59]Cosette
[00:00.78]How strange
[00:01.84]This feeling that my life's begun at last
[00:05.29]This change,
[00:06.94]Can people really fall in love so fast
[00:10.63]What's the matter with you, Cosette
[00:13.92]Have you been too much on your own
[00:16.90]So many things unclear
[00:19.51]So many things unknown.
[00:25.16]In my life
[00:27.42]There are so many questions and answers
[00:30.12]That somehow seem wrong
[00:32.95]In my life
[00:34.83]There are times when I catch in the silence
[00:37.58]The sigh of a faraway song
[00:40.17]And it sings
[00:42.42]Of a world that I long to see
[00:44.48]Out of reach
[00:46.32]Just a whisper away
[00:48.26]Waiting for me.
[00:50.74]Does he know I'm alive
[00:52.25]Do I know if he's real
[00:54.52]Does he see what I see
[00:56.42]Does he feel what I feel
[00:59.33]In my life
[01:01.98]I'm no longer alone
[01:04.11]Now the love in my life
[01:05.66]Is so near
[01:08.24]Find me now, find me here!
[01:15.12]Valjean
[01:17.70]Dear Cosette,
[01:18.97]You're such a lonely child
[01:21.22]How pensive, how sad you seem to me
[01:25.48]Believe me, were it within my power
[01:29.09]I'd fill each passing hour
[01:31.92]How quiet it must be, I can see
[01:35.53]With only me for company.
[01:39.63]Cosette
[01:39.94]There's so little I know
[01:41.61]That I'm longing to know
[01:42.89]Of the child that I was
[01:44.15]In a time long ago...
[01:45.55]There's so little you say
[01:47.83]Of the life you have known
[01:49.12]Why you keep to yourself
[01:50.50]Why we're always alone
[01:52.34]So dark! So dark and deep...
[01:55.44]The secrets that you keep!
[01:59.75]In my life
[02:02.40]I have all that I want
[02:04.02]You are loving and gentle and good
[02:07.70]But Papa, dear Papa,
[02:10.43]In your eyes I am just like a child
[02:12.71]Who is lost in a wood
[02:14.61]Valjean
[02:15.10]No more words
[02:16.30]No more words. It's a time that is dead
[02:18.83]There are words
[02:21.11]That are better unheard,
[02:22.77]Better unsaid.
[02:24.34]Cosette
[02:24.48]In my life
[02:26.84]I'm no longer a child and I yearn
[02:34.35]For the truth that you know
[02:37.25]Of the years... years ago!
[02:42.50]Valjean
[02:42.68]You will learn
[02:44.67]Truth is given by God
[02:46.70]To us all in our time
[02:48.98]In our turn
[02:52.10]Valjean leaves the garden. Marius and Eponine arrive outside.
[02:55.25]Marius
[02:58.39]In my life
[03:00.53]She has burst like the music of angels
[03:03.40]The light of the sun
[03:05.61]And my life seems to stop
[03:08.70]As if something is over
[03:10.31]And something has scarcely begun.
[03:12.79]Eponine
[03:13.86]You're the friend who has brought me here
[03:16.52]Thanks to you I am one with the gods
[03:19.44]And Heaven is near!
[03:21.45]And I soar through a world that is new that is free
[03:25.28]Eponine (to herself)
[03:25.59]Every word that he says is a dagger in me!
[03:29.09]In my life
[03:31.85]There's been no one like him anywhere
[03:34.70]Anywhere, where he is...
[03:38.24]If he asked... I'd be his
[03:43.88]Marius & Eponine
[03:44.24]In my life
[03:46.94]There is someone who touches my life
[03:47.11]Waiting near
[03:47.11]Marius
