[ELIZA]
Look around, look around at how lucky we are
To be alive right now
"That won't work on Alexander," Killian muttered.
Look around, look around
[HAMILTON]
How long have you known?
[ELIZA]
A month or so
"OH!" Eliza exclaimed happily. "I know what this is!"
Angelica smiled, guessing it as well.
[HAMILTON]
Eliza, you should have told me
[ELIZA]
I wrote to the General a month ago
I begged him to send you home
[HAMILTON]
You should have told me
[ELIZA]
I'm not sorry
"I'm still not," Eliza smiled.
[HAMILTON & ELIZA]
I knew you'd fight until the war was won (the war's not done)
But you deserve a chance to meet your son
Alexander hesitated.
"So- Alex, are you scared of becoming a father because of how your father was?" Washington asked hesitantly.
Alexander stayed quiet, and that was all the confirmation they needed.
Look around, look around
At how lucky we are to be alive right now
[HAMILTON]
Will you relish being a poor man's wife
Unable to provide for your life?
"Don't tell me you genuinely worry about that," Eliza scoffed.
[ELIZA]
I relish being your wife
Look around, look around
Look at where you are
Look at where you started
The fact that you're alive is a miracle
Just stay alive, that would be enough
And if this child
Shares a fraction of your smile
Or a fragment of your mind
Look out world
That would be enough
Alexander smiled at his wife.
"Thank you, 'Liza," he murmured.
I don't pretend to know
The challenges you're facing
The worlds you keep erasing and creating in your mind
"It's better if you don't know," Alexander grimaced.
But I'm not afraid
I know who I married
So long as you come home at the end of the day
That would be enough
We don't need a legacy
Alexander cringed. Hamilton just watched his younger self in regret.
We don't need money
If I could grant you peace of mind
If you could let me inside your heart
Oh, let me be a part of the narrative
In the story, they will write someday
Let this moment be the first chapter
Where you decide to stay
And I could be enough
And we could be enough
That would be enough
"This was a really nice song," Eliza smiled.
"Definitely," Angelica hummed in agreement.
"Next song!" Scarlet exclaimed.
