Can this be true? I don't belive what I see, |
|
A man your age to be as strong as you are... |
|
A memory stirs, you make me think of a man |
|
From years ago, a man who broke his parole, he disappeared... |
|
Forgive me sir, I would not dare-- |
|
VALJEAN |
|
Say what you must, don't leave it there. |

|
I have only known one other who can do what you have done, |
|
He's a convict from the chain-gang, he's been ten years on the run. |
|
But he couldn't run forever, we have found his hide-away, |
|
And he's just been re-arrested and he comes to court today. |
|
Of course he now denies it, you'd expect that of a con, |
|
but he couldn't run forever, no, not even Jean Valjean... |
