Eponine`s Errand Lyrics

Eponine`s Errand lyrics

[Eponine is alone in the square.]

 

 Eponine

 Cosette! Now I remember!

 Cosette! How can it be?

 We were children together

 Look what's become of me...

 

 [Marius returns.]

 

 Good God! Oh, what a rumpus!

 

 Marius

 That girl, who can she be?

 

 Eponine

 That cop! He'd like to jump us

 But he ain't smart, not he.

 

 Marius

 Eponine, who was that girl?

 

 Eponine

 Some bourgeois two-a-penny thing!

 

 Marius

 Eponine, find her for me!

 

 Eponine

 What will you give me?

 

 Marius

 Anything!

 

 Eponine

 Got you all excited now,

 But God knows what you see in her

 Ain't you all delighted now

 

 [She refuses Marius' money.]

 

 No, I don't want your money sir...

 

 Marius

 Eponine, do this for me...

 Discover where she lives

 Be careful how you go

 Don't let her father know...

 

 'Ponine! I'm lost until she's found!

 

 Eponine

 You see, I told you so!

 There's lots of things I know...

 

 [Marius leaves.]

 

 'Ponine... she knows her way around...
