Little Fall of Rain

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

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

I'm here

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

And rain...-And rain...

Will make the flowers...-Will make the flowers...

grow...

(She dies. Marius kisses her, then lays her on the ground)
