Satisfied (Hamilton)
Alexis: A toast to the groom!
To the bride!
From your sister!
Who is always by your side
To your union
And the hope that you provide
May you always
Be satisfied
I remember that night
I just might regret that night for the rest of my days
I remember those soldiers boys tripping over themselves
To win our praise
I remember that dreamlike candlelight that you just can't 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 his I forgot my dang name
Set my heart aflame
Every part aflame
This is not a game
Sonic: You strike me
As a woman who has never been satisfied
Alexis: I'm sure I don't know what you mean
You forget yourself
Sonic: Your like me
I'm never satisfied
Alexis: Is that right?
Sonic: I've never been satisfied
Alexis: My name is Angelica Schuyler
Sonic; Alexander Hamilton
Alexis;Where's your family from?
Sonic: Unimportant there's a million things I haven't done
Just you wait
Just you wait
Alexis: So this is what if feels like to match wits
With someone at your level what the hell is the catch?
It's the freedom of feeling
Of seeing the light
It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite
You see it right?
The conversation lasted 2 minutes maybe 3 minutes
Everything we said in total agreement
It's a dream it's a bit of a chance
It's a bit of poster it's a bit of a stance
He's a bit of a flirt but I'mma give him a chance
I asked about his family 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 sisters face and she is-
Sapphire: Helpless...
Alexis: And I know she is-
Sapphire: Helpless...
Alexis: And her eyes are just-
Sapphire: Helpless...
Alexis: Then I realize
Three fundamental truths at the exact same time
I'm a girl 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
That doesn't mean I want him any less
He's after me cause I'm a Schuyler sister
That elevates his status I'd
Have to be nieve to see that aside
Maybe that is why
I introduced him to Eliza
Now thats his bride
Nice going Angelica
He was right you 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's be silently resigned
She'd be mine
She would say I'm fine
She'd be lying
But when I fantasize at night it's Alexander eyes
As I romanticize
What might have been
If I hadn't sized him so quickly
At least my dear Eliza's wife
At least I keep his eyes in my life
To the groom!
To the bride!
From your sister
Who is always by your side
To your union
And the hope that you provide
May you always
Be satisfied
And I know
She'll be happy as his bride
And I know
He will never be satisfied
I will never be satisfied
