Stars Lyrics - Alain Boublil

JAVERT 

There, out in the darkness 

A fugitive running 

Fallen from grace 

Fallen from grace 

God be my witness 

I never shall yield 

Till we come face to face 

Till we come face to face 

He knows his way in the dark 

Mine is the way of the Lord 

And those who follow the path of the righteous 

Shall have their reward 

And if they fall 

As Lucifer fell 

The flame 

The sword! 

Stars 

In your multitudes 

Scarce to be counted 

Filling the darkness 

With order and light 

You are the sentinels 

Silent and sure 

Keeping watch in the night 

Keeping watch in the night 

You know your place in the sky 

You hold your course and your aim 

And each in your season 

Returns and returns 

And is always the same 

And if you fall as Lucifer fell 

You fall in flame! 

And so it has been and so it is written 

On the doorway to paradise 

That those who falter and those who fall 

Must pay the price! 

Lord let me find him 

That I may see him 

Safe behind bars 

I will never rest 

Till then 

This I swear 

This I swear by the stars! 

GAVROCHE 

That inspector thinks he's something 

But it's me who runs this town! 

And my theater never closes 

And the curtain's never down 

Trust Gavroche, have no fear 

Don't you worry, auntie dear, 

You can always find me here!
