Fantine's Death

[Fantine]
Cosette, it's turned so cold
Cosette, it's past your bedtime
You've played the day away
And soon it will be night.

Come to me, Cosette, the light is fading
Don't you hear, the winter wind is crying
There's a darkness which comes without a warning
But I will sing you lullabies and wake you in the morning.

[Valjean]
Oh, Fantine, our time is running out
But Fantine, I swear this on my life.

[Fantine]
Look, M'sieur, where all the children play.

[Valjean]
Be at peace, be at peace evermore.

[Both]
My Cosette...
Shall live in my protection
Take her now
Your child will want for nothing
Good M'sieur, you come from God in Heaven
And none shall ever harm Cosette
As long as I am living.

Take my hand. The night grows ever colder
Then I will keep you warm
Take my child. I give her to your keeping
Take shelter from the storm
For God's sake, please stay till I am sleeping
And tell Cosette I love her
And I'll see her when I wake...
