He thinks that man is me,
He knew him at a glance.
The stranger he has found,
This man could be my chance.
Why should i save his hide?
Why should i right this wrong?
When i have come so far,
And struggled for so long.
If I speak, i am condemned,
If i stay silent i am damned.
I am the master of hundreds of workers,
They all look to me
Can i abandon them, how would they live
If i am not free?
If i speak, i am condemend
If i stay silent i am damned…
Who am i?
Can i condemn this man to slavery
Pretend i do not see his agony
This innocent who bears my face
Who goes to judgement in my place
Who am i?
Can i conceal myself forever more
Pretend i’m not the man i was before?
And must my name until i die,
Be no more than an alibi,
Must i lie?
How can i ever face my fellow men
How can i ever face myself again
My soul belongs to God i know,
I made that bargain long ago
He gave me hope when hope was gone
He gave me strength to journey on
Who am i?
Who am i?
I’m Jean Valjean!
And so Javert you see it’s true
That man bears no more guilt than you
Who am i…24601!
