Valjean
one day more,
another day, another destiny,
this never-ending road to calvary.
these men who seem to know my crime
will surely come a second time.
One day more...
Marius
i did not live until today.
how can i live when we are parted?
Valjean
one day more...
Marius and cosette
tomorrow youand'll be worlds away.
and yet with you my world has started.
Eponine
one more day all on my own.
Marius and cosette
will we ever meet again?
Eponine
one more day with him not caring.
Marius and cosette
i was born to be with you.
Eponine
what a life i might have known!
Marius and cosette
and i swear i will be true.
Eponine
but he never saw me there.
Enjolras
one more day before the storm
Marius
do i follow where she goes?
Enjolras
at the barricades of freedom.
Marius
shall i join my brothers there?
Enjolras
when our ranks begin to form
Marius
do i stay and do i dare?
Enjolras
will you take a place with me?
Chorus
the time is now.
the day is here.
Valjean
one day more!
Javert
one more day to revolution.
we will nip it in the bud.
i will join these little schoolboys.
they will wet themselves with blood.
Valjean
one day more...
Thénardiers
watch and'em run amuck!
catch and'em as they fall!
never know your luck
when thereand's a free-for-all!
Here a little dip!
there a little touch!
most of them are goners
so they wonand't miss much!
Rebel students

2nd group

1st group

2nd group
evand'ry man will be a king!
1st group
