Lyrics Fantine's Death - Les Misérables - International Cast

Cosette it's turned so cold
Cosette it's past your bed time
You've played the day away
And soon it will be night
Come to me
Cosette, the light is fading
Don't you see the evening star appearing?
Come to me and rest against me shoulder
How fast the minutes fly away
And every minute colder
Hurry near another day is dying
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
Dear Fantine, our time is running out
But Fantine I swear this on my life
Look monsieur where all the children play
Be at peace
Be at peace evermore
My Cosette
Shall live in my protection
Take her now
Your child will want for nothing
Good monsieur, 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 'til I am sleeping
And tell Cosette I love her
And I'll see her when I wake
