Alain Boublil - The Confrontation You Know Like From Les Mis Bonus Track Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Valjean, at last
We see each other plain
M’sieur le mayor
You’ll wear a different chain

[Verse 2]
Before you say another word, Javert
Before you chain me up like a slave again
Listen to me
There is something I must do

[Verse 3]
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 rеturn

[Verse 4]
You must think me mad
I’ve hunted you across thе years
Men like you can never change
A man such as you
[Verse 5]
Believe of me what you will
(Men like me can never change)
There is duty that I’m sworn to do
(Men like you can never change)
You know nothing of my life
(No! 24601)

[Verse 6]
All I did was steal some bread
(my duty’s to the law)
You know nothing of the law
(You have no rights, come with me, 24601)
You would sooner see me dead
(Now the wheel has turned around)
But not before I see this justice done
(Jeal Valjean is nothing now)

[Verse 7]
I am warning you, Javert
(Dare you talk to me of a 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)
[Verse 8]
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!)
