Come to Me (Fantine’s Death) Randy Graff & Colm Wilkinson

[FANTINE is now so ill that she is delirious. She imagines she can see her child, COSETTE, at play.]

[FANTINE]
Cosette, it's turned so cold
Cosette, it's past your bedtime
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 my 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

[VALJEAN enters.]

[VALJEAN]
Oh, Fantinе, our time is running out
But Fantine, I swear this on my lifе

[FANTINE]
Look, Monsieur, where all the children play
