The Night Drink With Me [Grantaire, Students]

(The defenders settle down for the night with wine and a song)

ENJOLRAS

Marius, rest.

FEUILLY

Drink with me to days gone by

Sing with me the songs we knew

PROUVAIRE

Here's to pretty girls who went to our heads.

JOLY

Here's to witty girls who went to out beds.

ALL

Here's to them and here's to you!

GRANTAIRE

Drink with me to days gone by

Can it be you fear to die?

Will the world remember you

When you fall?

Could it be your death

Means nothing at all?

Is your life just one more lie?

ALL

Drink with me to days gone by

To the life that used to be

WOMEN

At the shrine of friendship, never say die

MEN

Let the wine of friendship never run dry

ALL

Here's to you and here's to me

MARIUS

Do I care if I should die

Now she goes across the sea?

Life without Cosette

Means nothing at all.

Would you weep, Cosette,

Should Marius fall?

Will you weep, Cosette,

For me?

(Marius settles down to sleep)
