Who Am I Songtext
He thinks that man is me,
he knew him at a glance.
The stranger he has found,
This man could be my chance.
Why should i save his hide?
Why should i right his 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.
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 alibi,
must i lie?
how can i ever face my fellow men
how can i ever face, my self 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 carry on
who am i, i'm jeanvaljean
who am i, 24601!
he knew him at a glance.
The stranger he has found,
This man could be my chance.
Why should i save his hide?
Why should i right his 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.
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 alibi,
must i lie?
how can i ever face my fellow men
how can i ever face, my self 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 carry on
who am i, i'm jeanvaljean
who am i, 24601!
