Valjean's Confession - Live

There lived a man whos name was Jean-Valjean
 He stole some bread to save his sister's son
 For nineteen winters served his time
 In sweat, he washed away his crime
 Years ago, he broke parole and lived a life apart
 How could he tell Cosette and break her heart?
 It's for Cosette this must be faced
 If he is caught she is disgraced
 The time has come to journey on
 And from this day he must be gone
 Who am I?
 Who am I?
 You're Jean-Valjean
 What can I do that would turn you from this?
 Monsieur you can not leave
 Whatever I tell my beloved Cosette she will never believe
 Make her believe I have gone on a journey a long way away
 Tell her my heart was too full for farewells
 It is better this way
 Promise me Monsieur, Cosette will never know
 I give my word
 What I have spoken, why I must go
 For the sake of Cosette
 It must be so
