In My Life

How strange
This feeling that my life's begun at last
This change
Can people really fall in love so fast?
What's the matter with you Cosette?
Have you been to much on your own?
So many things unclear
So many things unknown
In my life
There are so many questions and answers
That somehow seem wrong
In my life
There are times when I catch in the silence
The sigh of a faraway song
And it sings
Of a world that I long to see
Out of reach
Just a whisper away waiting for me
Does he know I'm alive?
Do I know if he's real?
Does he see what I see?
Does he feel what I feel?
In my life
I'm no longer alone
Now the love in my life is so near
Find me now
Find me here
Dear Cosette
You're such a... a lonely child
How pensieve, how sad you seem to me
Believe me
Were it within my power
I'd fill each passing hour
How quiet it must be
I can see
With only me for company
There's so little I know that I'm longing to know
Of the man that you were in a time long ago
Please Cosette
There's so little you say of the life you have known
Why you keep to yourself
Why we're always alone
So dark, so dark and deep
The secrets that you keep
In my life
Please forgive what I say
You are loving and gentle and good
But Papa
Dear Papa
In your eyes I am still like the child
Who's lost in a wood
No more words
No more words it's a time that is dead
There are words
That are better unheard
Better unsaid
In my life
I'm no longer a child
And I yearn for the truth that you know
Of the years
Years ago
You will learn
Truth is given by God to us all in our time
In our turn
In my life
She has burst like the music of angels
The light of the sun
And my life
Seems to stop as if something is over
And something has scarely begun
Eponine
You're the friend who has brought me here
I'm at one with the gods
And heaven is near
And I soar through a world that is new
That is free
Every word that he says is a dagger in me
In my life
There's been no one like him anywhere
Anywhere, where he is
If he asked
I'd be his
In my life
There is someone who touches my life
Waiting near
