Lyrics
0:00(《 亚历山大·汉米尔顿》音乐剧插曲)
0:00Un deux trois quatre
0:01Cinq six sept huit neuf
0:05Good un deux trois quatre
0:07Cinq six sept huit neuf
0:11Sept huit neuf
0:14Sept huit neuf
0:15One two three four five six seven eight nine
0:21My dearest Angelica
0:22Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
0:24Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
0:27I trust you'll understand the reference to
0:29Another Scottish tragedy without my having to name the play
0:33They think me Macbeth and ambition is my folly
0:36I'm a polymath a pain in the a** a massive pain
0:39Madison is Banquo Jefferson's Macduff
0:42And Birnam Wood is Congress on its way to Dunsinane
0:46And there you are an ocean away
0:48Do you have to live an ocean away
0:51Thoughts of you subside
0:53Then I get another letter
0:54I cannot put the notion away
0:57Take a break
0:58I am on my way
1:00There's a little surprise before supper
1:02And it cannot wait
1:04I'll be there in just a minute save my plate
1:06Alexander
1:07Okay okay
1:08Your son is nine years old today
1:10Has something he'd like to say
1:13He's been practicing all day
1:17Philip take it away
1:19Daddy daddy look
1:20My name is Philip
1:22I am a poet
1:24I wrote this poem just
1:25To show it
1:26And I just turned nine
1:29You can write rhymes
1:30But you can't write mine
1:31What
1:32I practice french
1:33And play piano with my mother
1:34Uh-huh
1:34I have a sister but I want a little brother
1:37Okay
1:37My daddys trying to start americas bank
1:40Un deux trois quatre cinq
1:42Bravo
1:43Take a break
1:44Hey our kid is pretty great
1:46Run away with us for the summer
1:48Let's go upstate
1:50Eliza I've got so much on my plate
1:52We can all go stay with my father
1:54There's a lake I know
1:56I know
1:57In a nearby park
1:58I'd love to go
2:00You and I can go when the night gets dark
2:05I will try to get away
2:07My dearest Alexander
2:08You must get through to Jefferson
2:10Sit down with him and compromise
2:11Don't stop 'til you agree
2:12Your fav'rite older sister
2:14Angelica reminds you
2:16There's someone in your corner all the way across the sea
2:19In a letter I received from you two weeks ago
2:21I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase
2:24It changed the meaning
2:26Did you intend this
2:27One stroke and you've consumed my waking days
2:30It says
2:30My dearest Angelica
2:33With a comma after dearest
2:36You've written
2:37My dearest Angelica
2:42Anyway all this to say
2:43I'm coming home this summer
2:45At my sister's invitation
2:46I'll be there with your fam'ly
2:48If you make your way upstate
2:49I know you're very busy
2:51I know your work's important
2:53But I'm crossing the ocean and I just can't wait
2:56You won't be an ocean away
2:58You will only be a moment away
3:02Alexander come downstairs
3:04Angelica's arriving today
3:10Angelica
3:11Eliza
3:13The Schuyler sisters
3:17Alexander
3:19Hi
3:20It's good to see your face
3:22Angelica tell this man John Adams spends the summer with his family
3:28Angelica tell my wife John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway
3:34You're not joining us wait
3:37I'm afraid I cannot join you upstate
3:40Alexander I came all this way
3:42She came all this way
3:44All this way
3:45Take a break
3:46You know I have to get my plan through Congress
3:48Run away with us for the summer
3:50Let's go upstate
3:51I lose my job if I don't get my plan through Congress
3:53We can all go stay with our father
3:56There's a lake I know
3:59In a nearby park
4:02You and I can go
4:04Take a break and get away
4:10Let's go upstate
4:11Where we can stay
4:16Look around look around
4:19At how lucky we are to be alive right now
4:22We can go
4:24When the night gets dark
4:27Take a break
4:28I have to get my plan through Congress
4:31I can't stop until I get this plan through Congress
