Javert 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. Javert 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 hideaway 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
