Alain Boublil - Night of Anguish lyrics

[ENJOLRAS] She is the first to fall The first of us to fall upon this barricade [MARIUS] Her name was Eponine Her life was cold and dark, yet she was unafraid [COMBEFERRE] We fight here in her name [PROUVAIRE] She will not die in vain [BOSSUET] She will not be betrayed [Éponine's body is carried away. Valjean appears disguised as a soldier.] [JOLY] Here comes a man in uniform What brings you to this place? [VALJEAN] I come here as a volunteer [JOLY] Approach and show your face [SENTRY] You wear an army uniform [VALJEAN] That's why they let me through [JOLY] You've got some years behind you, sir [VALJEAN] There's much that I can do [JOLY] You see that prisoner over there? [GRANTAIRE] A volunteer like you! [COMBEFERRE] A spy who calls himself Javert! [GRANTAIRE] He's going to get it, too [SENTRY] They're getting ready to attack! [Enjolras gives Valjean a gun.] [ENJOLRAS] Take this and use it well! But if you shoot us in the back You'll never live to tell
