“Love Doesn’t Die, It Finds a Way to Exist” Duet by Grace & Grit (Éponine & Eliza concept) [Verse 1 — Éponine (mezzo / Grit)] I walked beside you in the shadows of your light, Your world was never mine, but I still held it tight. I loved you from a distance no confession could undo, And though you couldn’t feel it… I still felt it was true. [Verse 2 — Eliza (soprano / Grace)] I stood before you as a flower in the rain, You taught me how to speak, but never eased the pain. And though your pride was armor, I could see the man beneath, I loved you without saying so… in every stolen breath. [Chorus — Duet] Love doesn’t die, it finds a way to exist, In the spaces unspoken, in the moments we missed. It lingers in silence where goodbye can’t resist, No… love doesn’t die, it finds a way to exist. [Bridge — Call & Response / Overlap] Éponine: I learned to let you go without letting go. Eliza: I found myself, and somehow found you in the glow. Both: Love isn’t only holding on… Both: Sometimes it’s letting someone grow. [Chorus — Duet Reprise] Love doesn’t die, it finds a way to exist, In the memories we carry, in the hearts we enlist. It softens with time, but it still can persist… No… love doesn’t die, it finds a way to exist. [Outro — Soft, Blended] Maybe loving you was never meant to be bliss… But love doesn’t die— it learns to live… like this.
