Confrontation

Confrontation - Roger Allam/Colm Wilkinson

Written by：Claude/Michel Schönberg

Valjean at last

We see each other plain

M'sieur le Mayor

You'll wear a different chain

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

You must think me mad

I've hunted you across the years

A man like you can never change

A man such as you

Men like you can never change

Men like you can never change

No 24601

My duty's to the law

You have no rights

Come with me 24601

Now the wheel has turned around

Jean Valjean is nothing now

Dare you talk to me of crime

And the price you had to pay

Every man is born in sin

Every man must choose his way

You know nothing of Javert

I was born inside a jail

I was born with scum like you

I am from the gutter too

And this I swear to you tonight

There is no place for you to hide

Your child will live within my care

Wherever you may hide away

And I will raise her to the light

I swear to you I will be there
