The Bargain / The Waltz of Treachery John Owen-Jones, Ashley Artus & Lynne Wilmot

[VALJEAN]
I found her wandering in the wood
This little child, I found her trembling in the shadows
And I am here to help Cosette
And I will settle any debt you may think proper
I will pay what I must pay
To take Cosette away

[THÉNARDIER]
What to do, what to say
Shall you carry our treasure away?
What a gem, what a pearl
Beyond rubies is our little girl
How can we speak of debt?
Let's not haggle for darling Colette

[MADAME THÉNARDIER, spoken]
Cosette

[THÉNARDIER]
Cosette

Dear Fantine, gone to rest
Have wе done for your child what is best?
Shared our brеad, shared each bone
Treated her like she's one of our own
Like our own, Monsieur
