A Little Fall of Rain

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