Who Am I? lyrics

Artist  : Les Miserables 
Song : Who Am I?



 Send "Who Am I?" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
He thinks that man is me!

He knew him at a
glance!

That 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
hundreds of workers

They all look to
me

How can I abandon them, how can they
live

If I am not free?

If I speak, I am
condemned

If I stay silent, I am damned!




Who am I?

Can I condemn this man to
slavery

Pretend I do not see his
agony

This innocent who bears my face

Who
goes to judgement in my place

Who am
I?

Can I conceal myself for
evermore?

Pretend I'm not the man I was
before?

And must my name until I die

Be
no more than an alibi?

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 



[He steps in
front of the court] 



Who am I?

Who
am I?

I am Jean Valjean! 



[He
unbuttons his shirt to reveal the number tattooed
to his chest.] 



And so Javert, you see
it's true,

That man bears no more guilt than
you!

Who am I?
