THE BARGAIN lyrics

Artist  : LES MISERABLES 
Song : THE BARGAIN
 
[Valjean and Young Cosette arrive at the now empty
inn,
     hand in hand.]
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.
     There is a duty I must heed,
     There is a promise I have made
     For I was blind to one in need
     I did not see what stood before me
     Now her mother is with God
     Fantine's suffering is over
     And I speak here with her voice
     And I stand here in her place
     And from this day and evermore
Mme. Thenardier
     Let me have your coat, M'sieur
Valjean
     Cosette shall live in my protection
Thenardier
     You are very welcome here
Valjean
     I shall not forsake my vow
Thenardier
     Take a glass
Mme. Thenardier
     Take a chair
Valjean
     Cosette shall have a father now!
