Les Miserables- One day more

[Guest greatness]

This song always lifts me up because I can feel a strong passion for life in this song.

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 & COSETTE

Tomorrow you'll be worlds away

And yet with you, my world has started!

 

EPONINE

One more day all on my own.

 

MARIUS & COSETTE

Will we ever meet again?

 

EPONINE

One more day with him not caring.

 

MARIUS & COSETTE

I was born to be with you.

 

EPONINE

What a life I might have known.

 

MARIUS & 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 your place with me?

 

ALL

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!

 

M. & MME. THENARDIER

Watch 'em run amuck,

Catch 'em as they fall,

Never know your luck

When there's a free for all,

Here a little `dip'

There a little `touch'

Most of them are goners

So they won't miss much!

 

Students (2 Groups)

1: One day to a new beginning

1: Every man will be a king

Do you hear the people sing?

My place is here, I fight with you!

 

VALJEAN

One day more!

 

MARIUS & COSETTE

One more day all on my own!

 

MARIUS & COSETTE

How can I live when we are parted?

I will join these people's heros

I will follow where they go

I will learn their little ---- Secrets,

I will know the things they ------ know.

One day more!

Tomorrow you'll be worlds away

Tomorrow we'll be far away,

Tomorrow is the judgement day

 

ALL

Tomorrow we'll discover

What our God in Heaven has in store!

One more dawn

One more day

One day more!
