Who Am I |
| He thinks that man is me |
| He knew him at a glance! |
| That 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 |
| How can I abandon them? |
| How would they live |
| If I am not free? |
| If I speak, I am condemned |
| If I stay silent, I am damned! |
| Who am I? |
| Can I condemn this man to slavery |
| Pretend I do not feel his agony |
| This innocent who bears my face |
| Who goes to judgement in my place |
| Who am I? |
| Can I conceal myself for evermore? |
| 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 am Jean Valjean! |
| And so Javert, you see it’s true |
| That man bears no more guilt than you! |
| Who am I? |
