| A toast to the groom!
|
| (To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
|
| To the bride!
|
| (To the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
|
| From your sister
|
| (Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
|
| Who is always by your side
|
| (By your side, by your side)
|
| To your union and the hope that you provide
|
| (You provide, you provide)
|
| May you always (always)
|
| Be satisfied (Rewind)
|
| Rewind!
|
| Rewind!
|
| I remember that night, I just might
|
| I remember that night, I just might
|
| I remember that night, I remember that—
|
| I remember that night, I just might
|
| Regret that night for the rest of my days
|
| I remember those soldier boys
|
| Tripping over themselves to win our praise
|
| I remember that dreamlike candlelight
|
| Like a dream that you can’t quite place
|
| But Alexander, I’ll never forget the first
|
| Time I saw your face
|
| I have never been the same
|
| Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
|
| And when you said «Hi,»
|
| I forgot my dang name
|
| Set my heart aflame, ev’ry part aflame
|
| This is not a game…
|
| You strike me as a woman who has never been satisfied
|
| I’m sure I don’t know what you mean, you forget yourself
|
| You’re like me, I’ve never been satisfied
|
| Is that right?
|
| I have never been satisfied
|
| My name’s Angelica Schuyler
|
| Alexander Hamilton
|
| Where’s your fam’ly from?
|
| Unimportant, there’s a million things I haven’t done
|
| Just you wait, just you wait…
|
| So so so—
|
| So this is what it feels like to match wits
|
| With someone at your level! |
| What the hell is the catch? |
| It’s
|
| The feeling of freedom, of seein' the light
|
| It’s Ben Franklin with a key and a kite! |
| You see it, right?
|
| The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes
|
| Ev’rything we said in total agreement, it’s
|
| A dream and it’s a bit of a dance
|
| A bit of a posture, it’s a bit of a stance
|
| He’s a bit of a flirt, but I’m ‘a give him a chance
|
| I asked about his fam’ly, did you see his answer?
|
| His hands started fidgeting, he looked askance
|
| He’s penniless, he’s flying by the seat of his pants
|
| Handsome, boy, does he know it!
|
| Peach fuzz, and he can’t even grow it!
|
| I wanna take him far away from this place
|
| Then I turn and see my sister’s face and she is
|
| Helpless
|
| And I know she is
|
| Helpless
|
| And her eyes are just
|
| Helpless
|
| And I realize three fundamental truths at the exact same time
|
| I’m a girl in a world in which
|
| My only job is to marry rich
|
| My father has no sons so I’m the one
|
| Who has to social climb for one
|
| Cause I’m the oldest and the wittiest and the gossip in
|
| New York City is insidious
|
| And Alexander is penniless
|
| Ha! |
| That doesn’t mean I want him any less
|
| (Doesn't mean I want him any less)
|
| (Doesn't mean I want him any less)
|
| (Doesn't mean I want him any less)
|
| He’s after me 'cause I’m a Schuyler sister
|
| And that elevates his status, I’d
|
| Have to be naïve to set that aside
|
| Maybe that is why I introduce him to Eliza
|
| Now that’s his bride
|
| Nice going, Angelica, he was right
|
| You will never be satisfied
|
| (I will never be satisfied)
|
| (I will never be satisfied)
|
| I know my sister like I know my own mind
|
| You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind
|
| If I tell her that I love him she’d be silently resigned
|
| He’d be mine
|
| She would say, «I'm fine»
|
| But she’d be lying
|
| But when I fantasize at night
|
| It’s Alexander’s eyes
|
| As I romanticize what might have been
|
| If I hadn’t sized him up so quickly
|
| At least my dear Eliza’s his wife
|
| At least I keep his eyes in my life…
|
| To the groom!
|
| (To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
|
| To the bride!
|
| (To the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
|
| From your sister
|
| (Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
|
| Who is always by your side
|
| (By your side, by your side)
|
| To your union and the hope that you provide
|
| (You provide, you provide)
|
| May you always
|
| Be satisfied
|
| And I know (yeah)
|
| She’ll be happy as his bride
|
| And I know
|
| He will never be satisfied
|
| I will never be satisfied |
