Shed no tears for me
As I slip away from harm
Its all I've ever wanted
To be safe here in your arms.
This won't be the first time
I must brace myself to face
The bitter consequences
Of my ancient fall from grace
I'm a daughter of Thenardier
I am not a stranger to the rain
Martyr in the storm
That's a role I've played before
I've learned not to yearn
For a life that's worth much more
I don't curse what I can't change
That was the hand I'm dealt
When we're starving on the streets
I tighten up my belt
I won't say I've never felt the pain
But I am not a stranger to the rain
And for the boy who's given me only happiness I've know
I wish that you could die with me, so we won't be alone
Because I am bound to be among the broken and the slain
And when bullets come over the barricades
I will dance before their guns to save the life of who I love.
Oh, shed no tears for me
Light no candle for my sake
This journey I'll be making
Is we all will make
I'll give myself to the wind
I'll turn my face into the spray
And when the heavens open
Let the drops fall where they may
If they finally wash away the stain
From a daughter of Thenardier
I am not a stranger to the rain
Let it rain, Marius.
