Les Miserables The Confrontation Letras:
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 breaks chair and
threatens Javert with the
broken piece.
Turns to Fantine.]
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!
[They fight, Javert is knocked
out. Valjean escapes.]
