Songtexte Valjean's Confession - Live - Gareth Gates , John Owen-Jones

Valjean
There lived a man who's
Named Jean Valjean
He stole some bread to
Save his sisters son
For nineteen winters
Served his time
In sweat he washed
Away his crime
Years ago, he broke his parole
And lived life apart
How could he tell
Cosette and break her heart
It's for Cosette
That this must be faced
If he is caught she is disgraced
The time is come to journey on
From this day he must be gone
Who am I? Who am I?
Marius
You're Jean Valjean
What can I do
That will turn you from this
Monsieur you cannot leave
Whatever I tell Cosette
She will never believe
Valjean
Make her believe
I have gone a long journey
A long way away
Tell her my heart
Was too full of farewells
It is better this way
Promise me, Monsieur
Cosette will never know.
Marius
For the sake of Cosette
It must be so
