Текст песни Who Am I - Alfie Boe

He thinks that man is me
Without a second glance
This 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 hundred of workers
They all look to me
Can I abandon them?
How will they live if I am not free?

If I speak they are 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 wears my face
Who goes to judgement in my place

Who am I?

Can I conceal myself forever more?
Pretend I'm not the man I was before?
And must my name until I die be no more than an allibi?
Must I lie?

How can I ever face my fellow man?
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'm Jean Valjean

And so Javert, you see it's true
This man bears no more guilt than you

Who am I?
