A Little Fall Of Rain

[Joly]
There's a boy climbing the barricade!

[Marius]
Good God! What are you doing
'Ponine, have you no fear
Have you seen my beloved
Why have you come back here?

[Eponine]
Took the letter like you said
I met her father at the door
He said he would give it
Don't think I can stand any more.

[Marius]
Eponine, what's wrong? I feel
There's something wet upon your hair.
(There is blood on his hands)

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 heal your wounds with words of love...

[Eponine]
Just hold me now, and let it be
Shelter me, comfort me...

[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.

[Eponine] So don't you fret, M'sieur Marius
[Marius] Hush-a-bye, dear Eponine.

[Eponine] I don't feel any pain
[Marius] You won't feel any pain.

[Eponine/Marius]
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me/you now.

[Marius] I'm here
[Eponine] That's all I need to know.

[Eponine] And you will keep me safe
[Marius] I'll stay with you till you are sleeping.

[Eponine] And you will keep me close
And rain.

[Marius] And rain
[Eponine] Will make the flowers...
[Marius] Will make the flowers... grow.
