[VALJEAN]
It's you, Javert!
I knew you wouldn't wait too long
The faithful servant at his post once more
This man's done no wrong
And he needs a doctor's care
[JAVERT]
I warned you I would not give in
I won't be swayed
[VALJEAN]
Another hour yet
And then I'm yours
And all our debts are paid
[JAVERT]
The man of mercy comes again
And talks of justice
[VALJEAN]
Come, time is running short
Down, Javert
He's standing in his grave
[VALJEAN]
It's you, Javert!
I knew you wouldn't wait too long
The faithful servant at his post once more
This man's done no wrong
And he needs a doctor's care
[JAVERT]
I warned you I would not give in
I won't be swayed
[VALJEAN]
Another hour yet
And then I'm yours
And all our debts are paid
[JAVERT]
The man of mercy comes again
And talks of justice
[VALJEAN]
Come, time is running short
Down, Javert
He's standing in his grave
