L’Un vers l’autre

I've listened to the French Les Miserables Concept Recording
It is very different and interesting and I was surprised to find Eponine
With a different solo than "On my own" I think I honestly like this better.. 
Mournful, sorrowful.. with a beautiful melody. The lyrics are also very lovely.. 
Much more suiting to the situation.. and makes Eponine much more sympathetic.

"Two angels who discover each other 
Have nothing to explain. 
Two souls who find each other again 
Have said everything without speaking. 
I often dreamed in Marius’ arms to be in her place. 
Before this happiness from another world, 
Jealousy disappears"

"Happiness suits them well, one to the other, 
A blind man in his heart could see it 
Happiness creates misery for others 
When they don’t have a role in the story.
But in a two-man play 
The others have no counterpart 
They are in the audience."

"They walked without knowing one after the other 
And luck has found the chance 
One can no longer love them one without the other 
Without giving away the moral of the story."
