歌詞

Javert
Valjean, at last,
We see each other plain
`M'sieur le Mayor',
You'll wear a different chain.

Valjean
Before you say another word, Javert
Before you chain me up like a slave again
Listen to me! There is something I must do.
This woman leaves behind a suffering child.
There is none but me who can intercede,
In Mercy's name, three days are all I need.
Then I'll return, I pledge my word.
Then I'll return...

Javert
You must think me mad!
I've hunted you across the years
A man like you can never change
A man... such as you...

Valjean (in counterpoint) Javert (in counterpoint)
Believe of me what you will / Men like me can never change
There is a duty that I'm sworn / Men like you can never change
to do / No, 24601,
You know nothing of my life / My duty's to the law
All I did was steal some bread / You have no rights
You know nothing of the world / Come with me 24601
You would rather see me dead / Now the wheel has turned around
But not before I see this justice done / Jean Valjean is nothing now
I am warning you Javert / Dare you talk to me of crime
I'm a stronger man by far / And the price you had to pay
There is power in me yet / Every man is born in sin
My race is not yet run / Every man must choose his way
I am warning you Javert / You know nothing of Javert
There is nothing I won't dare / I was born inside a jail
If I have to kill you here / I was born with scum like you
I'll do what must be done! / I am from the gutter too!

Valjean
And this I swear to you tonight

Javert
There is no place for you to hide

Valjean
Your child will live within my care

Javert
Whereever you may hide away

Valjean
And I will raise her to the light.

Valjean & Javert
I swear to you, I will be there!
