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 (MARIUS)
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 (Hush-a-bye, dear Eponine,)
I don't feel any pain (You won't feel any pain)
A little fall of rain (A little fall of rain)
Can hardly hurt me now (Can hardly hurt you now)
MARIUS: I'm here
EPONINE: That's all I need to know
And you will keep me safe (I will stay with you)
And you will keep me close (Till you are sleeping)
EPONINE (MARIUS)
And rain... (And rain...)
Will make the flowers... (Will make the flowers... grow...)
