A toast to the

 
 groom!
       
To the bride!

hat you provid

e!

[Verse]

I remember tha

t night, I jus

t might regret

 that night

For the rest of my days

  I remember t

hose soldier b

oys
Tripping over themselves
To win our praise


  I remember t

hat dreamlike 

candlelight
Like a dream that you can't quite place
             
  But Alexande

        
r, I'll never 

forget
              
The first time

            
 I saw your fa

ce

I have never been the same
  
Intelligent ey

es in a hunger

-pang frame
    
And when you s

aid "Hi"
I forgot my dang name
       
Set my heart a

flame
            
Every part afl

ame
This is not a game


  You strike m

e as a woman w

ho has never b

een satisfied

  I'm sure I d

on't know what

 you mean, you

 forget yourse

lf

You're like me

, I'm never sa

tisfied

  Is that righ

t?

  I have never

 been satisife

d


  My name is A

ngelica Schuyl

er

Alexander Hami

lton. Where's 

your family fr

om?

  Unimportant,

 there's a mil

lion things I 

haven't done
             
  Just you wai

        
t, Just you wa

it


 
So, so, so

  So this is w

hat it feels l

ike
To match wits with someone at your level
What the hell is the catch?
         
It's the feeli

ng of freedom
Of seein' the light
It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite!
You see it, right?


  The conversa

tion lasted tw

o minutes
Maybe three minutes
Everything we said in total agreement

It's a dream a

nd it's a bit 

of a dance
  
A bit of a pos

ture, it's a b

it of a stance

       
He's a bit of 

a flirt, but I

'm 'a give it 

a chance
I asked about his family
Did you see his answer?
    
His hands star

ted 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 h

im far away fr

om this place
       
Then I turn an

d see my siste

r's face
And she is

"Helpless"
And I know she is

"Helpless"
And her eyes are just

"Helpless"
And I realize
      
three fundamen

tal truths
        
At the exact s

ame time



  I'm a girl i

n a world in w

hich my only j

ob 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 old

est and the wi

ttiest
And the gossip in New York City, is insidious

  And Alexande

r is penniless

, ha

That doesn't m

ean I want him

 any less



  He's after m

e cuz I'm a Sc

huyler sister
That elevates his status
    
I'd have to be

 naive to set 

that aside
              
Maybe that is 

   
why I introduc

e him to Eliza
Now that's his bride
             
  Nice going, 

        
Angelica, he w

as right

  You will nev

er be satisfie

d



  I know my si

ster like I kn

ow my own mind
         
You will never

 find anyone a

s trusting or 

as kind
     
If I tell her 

that I love hi

m she'd be sil

ently resigned
       
He'd be mine
              
She would say 

     
"I'm fine"
She'd be lying



  But when I f

antasize at ni

ght
It's Alexander's eyes
As I romanticize what might have been
            
If I hadn't si

zed him up so 

quickly
At least my dear Eliza's his wife
   
At least I kee

p his eyes in 

my life


[Chorus]
              
A toast to the

 
 groom!
       
To the bride!
          
From your sist

er
             
Who is always 

         
by your side


        
To your union!
        
And the hope t

hat you provid

e!
              
And may you al


ways
            
Be satisfied


      
And I know
          
She'll be happ

y as his bride
       
And I know

He will never 

be satisfied

  I will never

 be satisfied
