Dear Theodosia
[BURR]Dear Theodosia, what to say to you?You have my eyes. You have your mother’s name
When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart
I’m dedicating every day to youDomestic life was never quite my styleWhen you smile, you knock me out, I fall apartAnd I thought I was so smart
You will come of age with our young nationWe’ll bleed and fight for you, we’ll make it right for youIf we lay a strong enough foundationWe’ll pass it on to you, we’ll give the world to youAnd you’ll blow us all away…Someday, somedayYeah, you’ll blow us all awaySomeday, someday
[HAMILTON]Oh Philip, when you smile I am undoneMy sonLook at my son. Pride is not the word I’m looking for
There is so much more inside me nowOh Philip, you outshine the morning sunMy sonWhen you smile, I fall apartAnd I thought I was so smartMy father wasn’t around
[BURR]My father wasn’t around
[HAMILTON]I swear that
[HAMILTON/BURR]I’ll be around for you.
[HAMILTON]I’ll do whatever it takes
[BURR]I’ll make a million mistakes
[BURR/HAMILTON]I’ll make the world safe and sound for you……will come of age with our young nationWe’ll bleed and fight for you, we’ll make it right for you
If we lay a strong enough foundationWe’ll pass it on to you, we’ll give the world to youAnd you’ll blow us all away...Someday, somedayYeah, you’ll blow us all awaySomeday, someday
