One Day More
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[Valjean]
One day more
Another day, another destiny
This neverending 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 and Cosette]
Tomorrow you'll be worlds away
And yet with you my world has started
[Eponine]
One more day all on my own
[Marius and Cosette]
Will we ever meet again?
[Eponine]
One more day with him not caring
[Marius and Cosette]
I was born to be with you
[Eponine]
What a life I might have known
[Marius and Cosette]
And I swear I will be true
[Eponine]
But he never saw me there
[Enjolras]
One more day before the storm!
[Marius]
Do I follow where she goes?
[Enjolras]
At the barricades of freedom
[Marius]
Shall I join my brothers there?
[Enjolras]
When our ranks begin to form
[Marius]
Do I stay and do I dare?
[Enjolras]
Will you take your place with me?
The time is now
Today is here
[Valjean]
One day more!
[Javert]
One day more to 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!
[Thernadiers]
Watch 'em run amuck
Catch 'em 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!
[Rebel 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!
[Marius and Cosette]
I did not live until today
[Eponine]
One more day all on my own
[Javert]
We will learn their little secrets
We will know the things they know
[Valjean]
One day more!
[Thenardiers]
Watch 'em run amuck
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 judgment day
[All]
Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in heaven has in store
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!
