Lyrics Les Miserables Cast – A Little Fall Of Rain
Text:
MARIUS
Good God, what are you doing?
‘Ponine, have you no fear?
Have you seen my beloved?
EPONINE
Took the letter like you said
I met her father at the door
He said he would give it
I don’t think I can stand anymore
MARIUS
Eponine, what’s wrong?
There’s something wet upon your hair
Eponine, you’re hurt
You need some help
Oh, God, it’s everywhere!
EPONINE
Don’t you fret, M’sieur Marius
I don’t feel any pain
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now
You’re here, that’s all I need to know
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
And rain will make the flowers grow
MARIUS
But you will live, ‘Ponine — dear God above
If I could close your wounds with words of love
EPONINE
Just hold me now, and let it be
MARIUS
You would live a hundred years
If I could show you how
I won’t desert you now…
EPONINE
The rain can’t hurt me now
This rain will wash away what’s past
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
I’ll sleep in your embrace at last
The rain that brings you here
Is Heaven-blessed!
The skies begin to clear
And I’m at rest
A breath away from where you are
I’ve come home from so far
So don’t you fret, M’sieur Marius
I don’t feel any pain
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now
That’s all I need to know
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
MARIUS
Hush-a-bye, dear Eponine
You won’t feel any pain
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt you now
I’m here
I will stay with you
Till you are sleeping
EPONINE
And rain…
MARIUS
And rain…
EPONINE
Will make the flowers…
MARIUS
Will make the flowers… grow…
ENJOLRAS
She is the first to fall
The first of us to fall upon this barricade
MARIUS
Her name was Eponine
Her life was cold and dark, yet she was unafraid
COMBEFERRE
We fight here in her name
PROUVAIRE
She will not die in vain
LESGLES
She will not be betrayed
