In a Place of Miracles
[PHOEBUS]
Here we are, nearly strangers
From two worlds that've rarely met
But somehow, you have made me someone new

Traveling far on a journey
That's the longest I've taken yet
Now I'm asking if you will let me come with you

Though our lives are tattered and torn
All I'm feeling now is reborn

I must be in a place of miracles

[ESMERALDA]
Where the blind can see

[PHOEBUS & ESMERALDA]
In a place of miracles

[PHOEBUS]
A miracle you've brought to me

[PHOEBUS & ESMERALDA]
The soldier and the gypsy
Locked in an embrace
In a place of miracles
[QUASIMODO]
I knew I'd never know
That warm and loving glow
Though I might wish with all my might
No face as hideous as my face
Was ever meant for Heaven's Light

[ESMERALDA, PHOEBUS, BOTH, (QUASIMODO)]
All this time (This time it's time I learned)
I've been certain (No love will be returned)
That my life would be spent alone
(To one who's born to be alone)
And what's more, I've pretended not to care
(Who looks both laughable and frightening)
But now I'm (And now I know there'll be)
Here beside you (No miracles for me)
No more need for a heart of stone
(Better to have a heart of stone)
Though we'll set out for lands unknown
They're lands we'll share
(That holds no hope of Heaven's light...)

[GYPSIES]
Will we reach a friendlier shore?
Will we find a haven once more
Where we'll be in a place of miracles?
Now we leave our home
For a place of miracles
[CLOPIN]
Romanis again must roam
Could there be a country
Kinder to our race?

[GYPSIES]
In a place of miracles

[QUASIMODO]
Where's my place of miracles?

[ESMERALDA & PHOEBUS]
In a place...

[ALL]
Of miracles
