[00:01.23]Hugh Jackman - Valjean's Soliloquy
[00:13.33]What have I done sweet Jesus What have I done
[00:16.08]Become a thief in the night Become a dog on the run
[00:19.53]Have I fallen so far and is the hour so late
[00:22.91]That nothing remains but the cry of my hate
[00:25.92]The cries in the dark that nobody hears
[00:28.68]Here where I stand at the turning of the years
[00:34.43]If there's another way to go I missed it twenty long years ago
[00:39.56]My life was a war that could never be won
[00:42.06]They gave me a number murdered Valjean
[00:44.68]When the chained me and left me for dead
[00:47.43]Just for stealing a mouthful of bread
[01:02.06]Yet why did I allow that man to touch my soul and teach me love
[01:10.48]He treated me like any other
[01:14.09]He gave me his trust he called me "brother"
[01:19.42]My life he claims for God above Can such things be
[01:27.62]For I had come to hate the world this world that always hated me
[01:38.73]Take an eye for an eye turn your heart into stone
[01:46.36]This is all I have lived for this is all I have known
[01:59.15]One word from him and I'd be back beneath the lash upon the rack
[02:06.98]Instead he offers me my freedom
[02:10.43]I feel my shame inside me like a knife
[02:15.54]He told me that I had a soul How does he know
[02:24.18]What spirit comes to move my life Is there another way to go
[02:38.67]I am reaching but I fall and the night is closing in
[02:46.89]As I stare into the void to the whirlpool of my sin
[02:56.02]I'll escape now from the world from the world of Jean Valjean
[03:02.68]Jean Valjean is nothing now Another story must begin
