Skies... skies...

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 candlelightLike 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 nameSet my heart aflame, ev'ry part aflameThis is not a game
You strike me as a woman who has never been satisfiedI'm sure I don't know what you meanYou forget yourselfYou're like me, I'm never satisfiedIs that right?I have never been satisfiedMy name is Angelica SchuylerAlexander 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 lightIt'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 itI wanna take him far away from this placeThen I turn and see my sister's face and she isHelplessAnd I know she isHelplessAnd her eyes are justHelplessAnd I realizeThree fundamental truths at the exact same timeWhere are you taking me?I'm about to change your lifeThen 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 insidiousAnd Alexander is pennilessHa, that doesn't mean I want him any lessElizabeth Schuyler, it's a pleasure to meet youSchuyler?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 ElizaNow 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
