| Valjean
|
| What have I done?
|
| Sweet Jesus, what have I done?
|
| Become a thief in the night
|
| Become a dog on the run
|
| And have I fallen so far
|
| And is the hour so late
|
| That nothing remains but the cry of my hate,
|
| The cries in the dark that nobody hears,
|
| Here where I stand at the turning of the years?
|
| If there’s another way to go
|
| I missed it twenty long years ago
|
| My life was a war that could never be won
|
| They gave me a number and murdered Valjean
|
| When they chained me and left me for dead
|
| Just for stealing a mouthful of bread
|
| Yet why did I allow that man
|
| To touch my soul and teach me love?
|
| He treated me like any other
|
| He gave me his trust
|
| He called me brother
|
| My life he claims for God above
|
| Can such things be?
|
| For I had come to hate this world
|
| This world which had always hated me Take an eye for an eye!
|
| Turn your heart into stone!
|
| This is all I have lived for!
|
| This is all I have known!
|
| One word from him and I’d be back
|
| Beneath the lash, upon the rack
|
| Instead he offers me my freedom,
|
| I feel my shame inside me like a knife
|
| He told me that I have a soul,
|
| How does he know?
|
| What spirit came to move my life?
|
| Is there another way to go?
|
| I am reaching, but I fall
|
| And the night is closing in And I stare into the void
|
| To the whirlpool of my sin
|
| I’ll escape now from the world
|
| From the world of Jean Valjean
|
| Jean Valjean is nothing now
|
| Another story must begin! |
