All right, all right, that's what I'm talking about!
Now, everyone give it up for the maid of honor, Angelica Schuyler!

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

From your sister
Angelica, Angelica
Angelica

Who is always by your side
By your side, by your side

To your union
To the union! (To the union)
To the revolution!

And the hope that you provide
You provide
You provide

May you always
Always

Be satisfied

Rewind

Rewind
Rewind

Helpless...
Skies... skies...
Drownin' in 'em...
Drowning
Rewind

I remember that night, I just might (rewind!)

I remember that night I just might (rewind!)
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'm never satisfied

Is that right?

I have never been satisfied

My name is Angelica Schuyler

Alexander Hamilton
Where's your family 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 seeing the light

It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite
You see it right?
The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes, everything 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'mma give it 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

Where are you taking me?

I'm about to change your life

Then by all means, lead the way
Number one!
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
So 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

Elizabeth Schuyler, it's a pleasure to meet you

Schuyler?

My sister!
Number two!
He's after me because I'm a Schuyler sister
That elevates his status, I'd
Have to be naive 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
Thank you for all your service
If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it
I'll leave you to it!
Number three!
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"
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
To the union!
To the revolution!
And the hope that you provide
You provide
You provide
May you always
Always
Be satisfied
Satisfied, (satisfied), satisfied
And I know (be satisfied) ((be satisfied)) (be satisfied)
She'll be happy as his bride (satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)
And I know ((be satisfied)) (satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)
((be satisfied))
He will never be satisfied
I will never be satisfied
