Stars (Javert) Songtext
von Claude‐Michel Schönberg

There
Out in the darkness
A fugitive running
Fallen from God
Fallen from grace
God be my witness
I never shall yield
′Til we come face to face
'Til we come face to face
He knows his way in the dark
Mine is the way of the Lord
Those who follow the path of the righteous will 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 skies
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 flames
And so it has been, for so it is written
On the doorways to paradise
Those who falter
Those who fall
Must pay the price
God let me find him
That I may see him
Safe behind bars
I will never rest
′Til then
This I swear
This I swear by the stars!
