[00:12.800]COMBUFREE: At Notre Dame the sections are prepared!
[00:14.859]FUELLY: At rue de Bac they're straining at the leash!
[00:16.726]COUNFERA: Students, workers, everyone
[00:18.278]There's a river on the run
[00:20.083]Like the flowing of the tide
[00:21.670]Paris coming to our side!
[00:24.070]ENJOLRAS: The time is near...
[00:27.274]So near. It's stirring the blood in their veins!
[00:31.436]And yet beware...
[00:35.192]Don't let the wine go to your brains!
[00:40.176]For the army we fight is a dangerous foe
[00:43.233]With the men and the arms that we never can match
[00:46.229]It's easy to sit here and swat 'em like flies
[00:49.195]But the national guard will be harder to catch
[00:52.472]We need a sign
[00:55.068]To rally the people
[00:56.583]To call them to arms
[00:58.251]And to bring them in line!
[01:02.362]JEAN PROVAIRE: Marius, what's wrong with you today?
[01:04.880]You look as if you've seen a ghost.
[01:07.430]GRANTAIRE: Some wine and say what's going on!
[01:12.264]MARIUS: A ghost you say... a ghost maybe
[01:15.674]She was just like a ghost to me
[01:18.822]One minute there, then she was gone!
[01:25.368]GRANTAIRE: I am agog
[01:27.111]I am aghast
[01:28.823]Is Marius in love at last?
[01:32.039]I have never seen him 'ooh' and 'aah'
[01:39.219]We talk of battles to be won
[01:41.834]And here he comes like Don Ju-an
[01:45.405]It's better than an o-per-a!
[02:04.349]ENJOLRAS: It is time for us all
[02:06.054]To decide who we are...
[02:10.892]Do we fight for the right
[02:12.582]To a night at the opera now?
[02:17.582]Have you asked of yourselves
[02:19.193]What's the price you might pay?
[02:23.859]Is it simply a game
[02:25.483]For rich young boys to play?
[02:28.225]The color of the world
[02:30.874]Is changing
[02:32.439]Day by day...
[02:35.926]Red - the blood of angry men!
[02:40.753]Black - the dark of ages past!
[02:45.404]Red - a world about to dawn!
[02:49.917]Black - the night that ends at last!
[02:56.858]MARIUS: Had you been there tonight
[02:58.494]You might know how it feels
[03:03.025]To be struck to the bone
[03:04.833]In a moment of breathless delight
[03:09.334]Had you been there tonight
[03:11.004]You might also have known
[03:15.557]How your world may be changed
[03:17.516]In just one burst of light!
[03:19.764]And what was right
[03:21.069]Seems wrong
[03:23.095]And what was wrong
[03:24.159]Seems right...
[03:27.830]GRANTAIRE: Red...
[03:29.214]MARIUS: I feel my soul on fire!
[03:32.347]GRANTAIRE: Black...
[03:33.995]MARIUS: My world if she's not there...
[03:37.154]CHORUS: Red...
[03:38.575]MARIUS: The color of desire!
[03:41.430]CHORUS: Black...
[03:42.962]MARIUS: The color of despair!
[03:48.618]ENJOLRAS: Marius, you're no longer a child
[03:51.748]I do not doubt you mean it well
[03:54.308]But now there is a higher call
[03:59.272]Who cares about your lonely soul
[04:02.415]We strive toward a larger goal
[04:05.190]Our little lives don't count at all!
[04:08.705]ENJOLRAS & CHORUS: Red - the blood of angry men!
[04:13.026]Black - the dark of ages past!
[04:17.542]Red - a world about to dawn!
[04:22.103]Black - the night that ends at last!
