Claude-Michel Schönberg
One Day More
[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 & MARIUS]
One more day before the storm
Do I follow where she goes?
At the barricades of Freedom
Shall I join my brothers there?
When our ranks begin to form
Do I stay or do I dare?
Will you take your place with me?

[ALL]
The time is now
The day is here

[VALJEAN]
One day more!
[JAVERT]
One day more till revolution
We will nip it in the bud
We'll be ready for these schoolboys
They will wet themselves with blood!

[VALJEAN]
One day more!

[M. & MME. THENARDIER]
Watch them run amuck
Catch'm 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]
One day to a new beginning
Raise the flag of freedom high!
Every man will be a king
Every man will be a king
There's a new world for the winning
There's a new world to be won
Do you hear the people sing?
[MARIUS]
My place is here
I fight with you!

[VALJEAN]
One day more!

[JAVERT & COSETTE]
We will join these people's heroes (I did not live until today)

[JAVERT & M. THENARDIER & COSETTE]
We will follow where they go (Watch them run amuck) (Tomorrow you'll be worlds away)

[JAVERT]
We will join these people's heroes
We will follow where they go
We will learn their little secrets
We will know the things they know

[VALJEAN]
One day more!

[M. & MME. THENARDIER & EPONINE]
Watch 'em run amuck (One more day all on my own)
Catch 'em as they fall
Never know your luck
When there's a free-for-all

[JAVERT]
We'll be ready for these schoolboys

[VALJEAN]
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!
